Answer 5

This is mostly likely a scam, but if they ask you for any amount of money, then it is certainly a scam.  There are tons of different ones out there, but a majority of them are coming from the UK.  I had puppies, jewelry, wedding dress and other items listed online, with every ad I was contacted from someone out of this country, with very broken speech and all wanting to send me a check larger than the amount I had asked for, then return to them the difference- Only problem is that the original check they send you is counterfeit and by the time you find out, you've sent them a large amount back and you owe it all back to the bank!  Be VERY careful, ask a lot of questions!  and remember "if it sounds to good to be true, it usually is".
