The last month I have worked with a man claiming to be from Belgim with the name of Wesley Brown, AKA, wesley_agric@yahoo.co.uk
He sent a check for $3100 for my Ross Gearbox. It took ten days for the check to arrive, and he emailed me every day.

I put the check in the bank and was going to Western Union [wire] funds to a Michael Ogunlowo-Ibukun in Nigeria. The funds did not come thru and I waited until today to find the $3100 check did bounce. The [check] money was extracted from my account.  If I had wired the money to Nigeria I would have been out the $1800.

He talked very broken, almost Iraki, and by phone I could not understand him much. My good luck, was when my neighbor said this type of scam was going around.

Be aware of this on airplane parts.
