    I was in contact with ellen Mackes, who indicated that they wanted to buy something from me. Seemed a little strange as the profile shows Maryland, texted me from a California phone number, and asked me to ship to an address in Florida.

    After some back and forth, I was asked to send a bunch of money to a third party, which I would be reimbursed for, plus $100.

    If anyone else is communicating with this person, beware! This person is a scammer!

    First thing you should so is run a search on the phone number. You'd be surprised at all of the nasty bits that can come up.

    Me to I sent a request to know if anyone had any brown or changing ermine from brown to white or any frozen Ermine white or multi colors. Had a person send me photos of a brown looking squirrel with a bushy tail .One photo looked like a small squirrel tack out flesh side facing downward. This person was calling it a weasel species long tailed and all. I think we all had tried to start out tacking down a small mammal in our earlier teenage days, but i ask this person where they were from , at last and they said Maryland.. i told this person surely you know what a weasel looks like , we have several subspecies here in the USA, I said sorry you got to do better .
    I know people have a need to make a dollar in these hard times, but geewize try to back up your lies with facts. Never seen a weasel that look like a tack skin flesh down with a long bushy tail here in the states. i think it may have been photoshop of a faded out piney squirrel and i was not going to pay this person anything since this person did not know what it was in the photo I did ask I was told it is your weasel you wanted. No i said a frozen wesasal of one of the sub species here in the states.Just had to put my two cents in . Sorry i was babling. jerred.
