Too good to be true!
Found this Craigslist post and replied just for fun. Basically she says her boy died of cancer and it reminds her of him so she is going to give it away. All you have to do to get it is to pay $200 for her to ship it with some "fastway" shipping service. Of course this is the only way she will ship! The emails are all in that broken Nigerian scammer writting! Oh well! Lol

Yeah, broken English in the emails and a Mystic Potion for $200? That reads scam from start to finish. Especially the part about nobody wanting to take her, even for free...
WAY too good to be true on that one...

Someone email the person and say you're in the area and you want to see the snake in person. Ha.
Wonder what they'll say to that since it's not their snake. LOL....

My wife emailed back and asked if she should just wire the money directly to Nigeria! Lol, she replied and said if she isn't serious shell find someone else.

Wow that is ridiculous.... Craigslist should really start requiring the IP numbers to match up at least with the state the person is posting the ad in. Even the same dang country would help.
