I KEPT THIS INFO IN MY EMAIL FILE FOR REFERENCE. IT WAS A SCAM FROM ANOTHER WEBSITE WHERE I WAS A MEMBER. THIS GUY GOES BY THE NAME OF JAMES LUTHER WHO CLAIMED TO BE A COLLECTOR ACTING AS AN AGENT FOR SOMEONE WANTING TO BUY ONE OF MY PAINTINGS. BE ON THE LOOK OUT FOR THIS TYPE OF EMAIL. HERE IS THE EMAIL:
hello,
I told you earlier that i am a collector for an orphanage home so its one of our benefactor that wants to buy the piece for the home so that is why it has been delayed..he is out of the state but he is back now so i want to know if the piece is still available.i am sorry for the waste of time and i also want you to know that he will be sending the payment with the money he has promised for the upbringing of the home..so i will like to know the status of the piece....pls do get back to me as soon as you get this..
i am looking forward to hear from you soon..
regards
lluther
I WAS TAKEN IN BY THE "orphanage home" LINE, AND AGREED TO DEAL WITH HIM DIRECTLY. AFTER EXCHANGING EMAILS, HE WANTED TO PICKUP THE PAINTING AND SENT A CHECK BY FEDEX. BUT FORTUNATE FOR ME, AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS, FEDEX NEVER DELIVERED IT. I GUESS THIS "BUYER" THOUGHT HIS SCAM HAD BEEN EXPOSED, BECAUSE I NEVER HEARD FROM HIM AGAIN.
