WARNING!! SCAMMERS using AUDIFANS MARKETPLACE for internet fraud!!!

[Dave Glubrecht]

I have seen this in the local papers, the check is always a forgery.
They usually send the check by a carrier costing them ~$30.00
Accept the terms but do NOT send them money untill the check they have sent
has cleared all banks and verified not a forgery (which it is).
  At least you may cost them the carrier fee.
