When I was selling my boat I was getting almost 5 scammers emailing me a day. It is almost enough to make me want to stop trying to sell on the web. Then when I wanted to purchase a Columbia 28 in North Carolina, I sent an email to the guy saying I would send him a cashiers check for the amount of the boat plus 2 months slip fee, because I wouldn't be able to make up there for a few months. he backed out and my guess is he thought I was trying to scam him. This is really ashame and all of us suffer.
