Haley Crites		Wedding request I received the following email and wondering if it sounds like a fraud to any of you or if anyone has received something similar. This was the second correspondence that we had. First she just asked in general about my wedding services. Here it is: Haley, The wedding has been scheduled for the 14th of April.l have been so busy up with research work.I urgently have an impromptu arrangement with my research team to visit the Polio Immunization Center in africa.Yes I am located in 915,Secon Avenue,Seattle wa 98174.Anita my daughter is still there at home trying to put so many things together on the wedding. Considering if you are not in town,l will make adequate flight arrangements for you.Also l will appreciate you make the trip the night before the wedding so that you can lodge in the hotel suites which have been reserved for guests who are coming from out of town, just within the same locality where the wedding will take place.In your reply,do not hesitate to send to me the name,address and a phone Number so that an American Certifed Check can be sent to you in fulfilment of this payment. Thank you and God blessings as we agree on the chosen date To love this question, log in above March 10, 2006

Kerry L. Walker		Scam. He will send you a check for more than he owes you and request that you forward the difference to someone else. His check will be bogus. To love this comment, log in above March 10, 2006

Christopher A. Vedros		I was thinking the same thing. You said this is only the second correspondence you have had, and they're ready to send you a check? Without meeting you or signing any type of contract? And due to this impromptu trip, the check will be coming from Africa. Hmmm, where have we heard this before?? It looks like the Nigerian check scammers have really put their focus on photographers. Do any type of search on "Nigerian scam" and I bet you'll see some familiar patterns.
