It's gotta be your ISP or whoever hosts your news service allowing the spam through. On two separate news servers that I use, I have not seen any of them. Just to add some Porsche content, I saw a 1990 928 S4 for sale today on the Seattle Craigslist site for $6k. I emailed the guy, but I think it's gotta be a scam or joke since it should be a $15k car. I do not fall for scams easily, but I figured an email couldn't hurt too much. I thought, "That's a nice price for a nice car." If it sounds too good to be true, then it probably is. : It's gotta be your ISP or whoever hosts your news service allowing the : spam through.

No spam here either... >> yes , total bullshit and all identical . >> i can't believe that it only happened [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > > If it sounds too good to be true, then it probably is. As a follow up: The 1990 928 S4 is more like a $25,000 car. I looked around on fleaBay and the full tubes of teh Internets. Incidentally, my email got to the guy. He replied. Big surprise that the car is not here (even though it was posted on Seattle CL), but in Coppell, Texas (Dallas-Ft Worth). It also oddly has Michigan plates on it, but anything is possible. It gets better here: He says that the $6k includes shipping and everything (wow!) and all I need to do is give him my shipping information so he can set up the money transfer with Worldpay. Classic scam bits. I should string him along. I wonder if he reads Usenet. Hey Guru! Don't you live in Texas? How far are you from Coppell? I really don't think it exists, but I'd like to have the option in my hip pocket. I probably could get someone from the Porsche club to do it if it were a reality. A 90 S4 for $6k shipped! Fun stuff. Coppell is near Dallas and I'm in Houston. I agree that you can probably find someone in the PCA-Maverick region if the bargaining got serious. The whole deal does seem to be a bit like 3 day old fish, smelly! >>> yes , total bullshit and all identical . >>> i can't believe that it only happened [quoted text clipped - 34 lines] > > A 90 S4 for $6k shipped!
