I just want to start out by saying that TNT is a legit company. It is the scammers that are saying that they offer an escrow type service. I have called TNT myself and they conferm that these people are scammers and that they are simply a shipping company and are NOT allowed to ship or transfer money.
I have now confermed that "susan" is back at work. She is continuously answering the e-mails from the st. louis craigslist listing for an ibook listing of " Re: Apple 14 iBook 1.42 Ghz PowerPC G4 1024MB Ram - $450 " she is using the same email quoted under" lottery scams" but inserting the words "ibook" when nessasary and asking to use TNT. I have forwarded the mock TNT site she sent me to TNT which was a fake site listing that TNT does offer an escrow type service. I spoke with TNT myself and informed them of this site. Hopefully they can do somtheing. "susan is also using the e-mail addresses as follows:
sus.hoklanson@hotmail.com - susan hokanson
(yes.. she actually miss spelled one of the them.. either her name or her e-mail address.... hoklanson / hokanson)
Susan_Wheeler321@hotmail.com - Susan Wheeler
I had confronted Susan previously about her craiglist listing and never heard another word from her. so... i decided to contact her again using another e-mail address and low and behold... the same reply message yet a different e-mail address and name!
just a heads up for everyone!
thanks so much for making your postings. this person must be stoped somehow! I will be reporting her account to craigslist also but there isn't really any actual way stop her for good.
thanks!
oh, by the way... thankfully i caught on before she got one penny from me! hopefully more people will read this and will not do business with this person.

Hello
I still have the laptop. As I said, the laptop was made to be used in USA, and it comes with warranty.
I have attached some pics with the laptop to this e-mail. I am now in Wolverhampton, United Kingdom.
Since I can't meet you and make the exchange, I would like to use a service that will help us with that:

TNT is a worldwide delivery company (like Fedex, DHL or UPS). You can see from their procedure that you will be able to check the laptop before I receive the payment. If you are in a hurry, I will use 2 day delivery (on my expense).
Let me know what you think.
Best,
Susan
