There is a Board member here who put the best ad for a Mac with the best clause about how he isn't interested in financing to get rid of the dreamers and scammers....

They contacted Me with this and of course I informed them that No one has permission to ship My Vessel out of the country. I went to Houston with repossession papers and now...after some assembly ,Dauntless is back where She should have always stayed. There are a few scrapes and a couple of gouges on the bow.....looks like the ladder got it , otherwise She looks great. Anyway....I'd love to come home...and promise not to run away again :) Dauntless :macm: Ron.
Hmmm. It almost doesn't sound so much like a well-played scam as it does a "bitten-off-more-than-he-could-chew dreamer-turned-scumbag." I mean, assuming the down payment and even subsequently paid installments mentioned were real enough, this is definitely not the modus operandi of your practiced scammer, who'd invariably strive to leave the mark with an empty bag. It's more the sloppy hallmarks of a maybe thrice-divorced prospective "alimony refugee" who'd polished off one too many cases of Corona while listening to Jimmy Buffet compilations and now aiming for Costa Rica or Belize or anywhere else down there three steps ahead of the sheriff's notices, garnishments and seizures, but then running out of ready cash to bring his sorry-ass deadbeat dream south, or maybe just jumping the gun, doncha think? In any event, not sorting out those boat papers or at least arranging for a lien to be recorded on them (if only for appearance's and customs' sake, never mind whether he ever intended to actually pay it off) was definitely not according to Hoyle. Leaving his wallet and phone at the shipping office was also an elegant touch. Nope...Probably not a scammer, just a hot mess.

Can I make mine a prosciutto and mushroom calzone with a Yuengling Black and Tan?
