This is actually an old scam with a twist: scammers used to offer to buy parking accounts in order to use; apparently now they also sell them to the unsuspected.

The real threat comes from scammers that can write.

Please tell us where the email originated so we create a thread and label the entire population of that Country as "Scammers"

Just taking a page for the "cool gang" playbook.

FYI, I think you linked to the homepage of the blog, http://whizzbangsblog.com/, which will and has changed with each new post.

instead of the permalink to the page (whizbang did not make it easy to get a permalink, but going to the single page does it with most blogs)

I had an email trying to sell parking accounts in the last week. I didn't understand it and deleted it.

I was confronted by a person in the linkedin domain sellers group and asked to acquire parking accounts to sell to him. I blogged about it here. I was really surprised that a supposedly reputable linkedin member was doing this.

My thoughts exactly. Scam or not, I wouldn't do business with this person based on their spelling alone.

Just another scam I have received recently for all of you to watch out for an old one.
I got a Check in the mail from a legitimate bank. $3900.00 someodd dollars. They wanted me to deposit it. They said they were security cheking Western Union. So I was supposed to take a portion $2500 or so and use it for that. The other thing was I was to be a mystery shopper for Best Buy and spend like $800 and the rest was mine to keep.
The whole thing is a scam your bank will tke the money when they realize the check is bad and they get $2500 of your money.

I know this is old but I despise dishonest people praying on others, So I just put it out there so it does not ruin anyones holidays.

PS: The return address was local but the actual postmark on the Envolope was from Canada.

The old saying still rings true: IF Its Too Good To Be True It Probably Is!
