I received a scam email via autotrader.com. The email headers are not useful because the message is relayed through AutoTrader. Unfortunately, the IP address of the "buyer" is not provided by AutoTrader. I did not even bother to reply to this one, as I have no doubts of its intent.
Here is the initial message from the scammer. It contains the usual red flags (grammar, punctuation, etc). The scammer is using the name Andy. I also found his email and script in a scam warning from a piano tuners web site.
