I'm convinced that some people with nothing to do just like to haggle the populace for kicks. Others try to get you to send pics via email .....they must sell email addresses.
My worst experience:
I advertised a horse for sale and a woman responded, wanted it and said to call her son. The son said he'd come but never did. Ran the ad again and same woman responded, said she'd be here at 1pm...a two hour drive for her. I suspected foulplay so I waited until 12:30 and reworded the ad (different price) and I'll be darned if she wasn't on the internet responding to my ad saying she needed a horse. Of course she never did arrive to get the horse. I then wrote to 4 or 5 people who were advertising horses for sale, alerting them to her tricks and said that I didn't think this particular woman was "very serious about buying a horse". Wouldn't you know it........ I got an email saying that "I don't think you're very interested in selling a horse". SHE was one of the people I alerted.
I had an acquaintance in the same town she was from and I was told she was a nutcase. People just get their kicks in funny ways.
