Default I just got an email

Over my manastone auction on craigslist

** CRAIGSLIST ADVISORY --- AVOID SCAMS BY DEALING LOCALLY
** Avoid: wiring money, cross-border deals, work-at-home
** Beware: cashier checks, money orders, escrow, shipping
** More Info: http://www.craigslist.org/about/scams.html


My dear intimate,

I'm a resident of are from indianapolis too and I would know if you are totally sure you wish to get rid of this manastones! - $30?

I realize what it is just like to have to endure in this crisis. Recently I sadly had to sell
my daughter’s laptop computer simply to generate our following transaction.
Those were undoubtedly the trickiest situations for the family.

My friend Ivan was not long ago let go due to the united states economic climate, and lost his Manastones! However, he has
discovered out an effortless method to make good amount over the internet and it actually allowed
me to endure.I thought required to come back and tell it with other
people who could well be facing these tough times.

I definitely believe which it’s certainly worth 50 seconds of your time.

Lots of people he has given this information have recently been so profitable
and if those persons can do it then so can you I have 3 Manatones! to date.

I trust you see that it’s of use. Feel free to tell your family.

Selling in game items for RL cash is definitely verboten here. As the staff itself doesn't offer donors in game items for donations, we respectfully ask that you don't either.

Sounds like a good deal to me. I could have 3 Manatones! as well.

And my family can use too!


@Aeolwind: I think it's a joke. It looks like he took a common Craigslist scam e-mail and replaced the word manastone! in the appropriate places.


Edit: And a little bit of searching shows there is an actual ad, but that doesn't preclude it being a joke. http://indianapolis.craigslist.org/atq/1609298404.html

30 dollars is a pretty good deal. Even at minimum wage it takes more time to farm that item. This person must be really hard up for cash to be working for 2 dollars an hour.
