About 10 days ago I listed a car on the Forum Classifieds and as suggested by some I opened a new E-Mail address in Hot mail. Never used it before. I recieved 2 responces that appeared legit and began to wonder where the rats went. Then I noticed a column marked "junk". I clicked on it and there were the scammers. 17 of them. All had the obvious titles we recognize. Didn't open a single one and deleted them all. I don't know how it does it but Hot Mail caught them all. For your info.

I posted a wanted ad ONCE only. I used my alternate e-mail address and sat back and waited the ONLY responses i received were from the U.K. and one from Nigeria. not sure if these were scammers but who the heck is going to pay to ship parts all the way from these places when there were millions made in america. I wrote in my ad that i was looking specifically for a local source (pacific north west)for used parts and didn't get a single local reply. some went to junk some got through. It seems the users and members of this forum don't bother with the classified section. Weird huh? Its too bad i thought it would be the answer to my long quest.

I certainly can't explain it Rik. And I was expecting a mass of scammers too. But some how they never made the inbox. I thought it was Hot Mail itself.
