Newbies,

 Be sure to read the scam forum https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=83.0

It is very easy to overlook until you grow accustomed to bitcointalk

never buy through pm's. either use escrow bitcrow.com or create an item "for sale" at bitmit.net and post the link here.. example: 10,000 cnc's for 90 ltc's. We purchase your cnc's via your third party sale, they send your LTC's, you are safe.

Don't worry, I just sent a $200 Western Union to a guy in Nigeria who said he would sell me 100 bit coins.  Pretty good deal.

I actually got an email from someone claiming to be Ben Bernanke a few weeks ago, classic Nigerian scam with a "helicopter Ben"/stimulus twist.  I almost wish I'd saved it.
