________________

I get these all the time some are easy to tell they are scams the the first one wanted me to send ice carvings to:

"i have attached a pick of what i want but i don't know how long it will take you to do that,i will be needing them in about 2 weeks if that is okay.the items will be taking to Trinidad & Tobago but not to worry about that because a shipping company will come to your location for the items to the delivery destination so all i need from you know is to tell me how much one will cost if made and weight with out shipping charges also i want to make payment with my credit card details before the items are ready,so that the shipping company will come pick them up as soon as they are ready,i hope to hear from you soon.

thank you
bigigs michael"
