    And they keep coming. This one is funnier than the first one. Apparently now he/she (not sure if JEL is a man or woman's name ) is an archaeologist working in gulf coast southern Arkansas. Didn't realize Arkansas had a coastline. I just classify them as spam on gmail now so I don't get repeat emails.

      This is an old game that is still fallen for. The draw for these scams seems to be the no nonsense price acceptance, and prepayment for shipping. This one didn't have the details about making the immediate deposit of the check.
