Hello,

How are you doing today ?I saw your advert on loot and am very much interested in it,so i will like to know your last asking price for it also the present condition. And regards the payment i will be making the payment by UK CERTIFIED CHEQUE. And also i will wait for the cheque to clear your bank before the items is been picked up by my shipping company. So i want you to get back to me with the full details asap.

Best Regards
Mr John Mathew "

It looks like it has been translated from another Language into English. The grammar is incorrect.

Steer clear.

Look at the properties sections of the incoming emails and see if they look to have come from genuine senders or hidden by various isp addresses.
You could always reply and say you didn`t understand the message, it could be genuine but from an imigrant with poor English. r do they want it sending to a foriegn country ? if so for a door I would forget it unless it has gold encrusted panels in it.
