Subject: [CR]WARNING! Beware of checks from South Africa

I have been getting all this interest in parts I am selling from Africa, the buyer states they have a check from someone in the US and it is for much more money than I am selling the part for they say I can cash the check and send them back the extra sounds familiar like some other scams I have heard going around. Be careful sounds like a big scam to me. When you write back they know nothing about bikes and nothing about anything. I would be really weary of anyone claiming to be in Africa sending you money.
