I posted a computer on Craig's list and had a guy claiming to be from the UK
wanting the computer. He offered to pay for pickup and delivery and all that
jazz. 

I got an email from Bidpay that looked fairly true to form. However, the
third word in was capitalized. I figured that Bidpay would not make a
mistake like that so I sent it to bidpay under their fraud program. It
worked.

The email was fake and I also submitted them to the internet fraud division
of the FBI. I haven't heard back yet.

Be careful and check the source or header info. The return email did not
work and the source info told me that it was sent from a hotmail account.
Bidpay does not use hotmail.
