So how does he get money?   The lessons and then the cashier's check is no good?   I thought cashier's checks were supposed to be like cash?   I guess a good printer is all your need...;-[

 If you recall, I posted a reply I got from someone in Houston who was interested in purchasing my Kimball console, which I had advertised on Craig's list. He was going to send a moving crew with a cashier's check, etc. 



Well, on Monday, my wife posted her piano lessons on Craig's list. She got a reply from someone who lives in Florida, but is now in England, but would be vacationing in "the States", for four weeks, and wanted his 14 year old son to take 3 one hour lessons a week for 4 weeks. He wanted to know how much it would cost for those four lessons, and his "nanny" would get him to the lessons, and bring a cashiers check for the full amount. 



Will these guys stop at nothing to scam us?
