From the grammar mistakes, can you figure what language this scammer speaks? Bob

This is obviously a scam, but I sometimes wonder if there is some philanthropist out there sitting in their office wondering" why doesn't anyone ever respond  "

Sometimes I wish I had deeper pockets just to see how it all played out. Maybe one day I'll find some pawnshop relics...

This happened to me but the guy that bought my guitars was a Prince so I was sure he had money. Must be something wrong at Visa because I'm still waiting for my money. I'm not sure if a search function will find it but several years ago Hank Mauel had some fun with one of these idiots. He posted all of his emails and it went on and on. If one had the time it would be quite fun to mess with them. |

An outfit on my Facebook did basically the same add. I ignored it as well. I also have a girl I know starting a consignment shop wants me to place some instruments with her. Yea sure I want every Tom,Dick,and Harry that comes along to pick it up and fool around with them. Told her I didn't have anything and was backed up pretty bad. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Lonnie, if you have a good relationship with the store, and they respect your instruments, consignment can be advantageous. I wouldn't rule it out completely. |

I just started getting my twice weekly recorded calls from "account services" again, after about a year off. It's a new girl doing it now. I kind of miss Rachel, though. Had her for a couple of years.  Alex |

Meddling fool this girl had a bar business and failed at it. She tried heavy metal in little Tennessee town. Because they would play for what they could get at the door. Which was nothing in this town. Her mom and dad own the property so she's trying to make a go of it. My gosh it's Tullahoma Tennesee for Gods sake. It's gotta be Hank and the boys or the people will go where they are playing Hank and the boys. I really don't trust her with any instruments. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Steve my oldest Grandson is an awesome guitar player. But he concentrates on heavy metal. I told him Son the only people who listen to heavy metal are 17 yr old boys. They don't have any money. I'd kind of throw some other tunes in there if you plan on getting paid for what you do. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

How true. One of my good friends' son is in a metal band. They're good and have been working hard for the last 3 years or so. They're all always flat broke |
