Here is a chainsaw scam alert I recently came across:
First, I found an add on craigslist for the Stihl MS880 Magnum for $600
http://providence.craigslist.org/tls/4417039800.html
I emailed the guy to see if it was still available and he emailed back to go to the following website to purchase the chainsaw.
http://www.overstockeasterpromos.com/product.php?id_product=377
In the email, I was give a promo code for an additional 10% off and free shipping.
At first glance it appears to be a real online store - but it is not.
I checked with the BBB and confirmed that it is a scam.
