S-Men,

I just listed my car on the Marketplace a few days ago and have been
receiving really odd inquiries on my car.  Apparently, the Nigerian
email scammers have suddenly come into the market for fine quality
used automobiles.  I haven't quite figured out how the scam works, I'd
be interested to know if any of you know what they're trying to pull. 
Hopefully nobody would get scammed by these guys, but I definitely
wanted to pass it along to anyone else, just in case...

"The more you know...."  *cue music*
