    I’m glad I did some reconnaissance work – here’s an email I received in response to an add for a baby grand piano (from the below email address). Hello I am currently located at Kansas. I have already asked movers to bring the piano here from my grand-son’s house in Boston, Massachusetts and was going to put up a new ad here in Kansas. Where are you based please? If you are able to afford the delivery charges I can coordinate the movers to return to Las Vegas as I only gave them the instruction yesterday evening, and I’m sure they will request for fees in turn.I bought the piano for him as his birthday gift last year august. Its a Yamaha Baby-Grand. It is two months now since he died and I would like for it to be passed out, as the house will be emptied soon and I myself will be relocating to Winnipeg, Canada where I shall stay with other family members for care.Please let me know your position maybe I can  contact the movers.  This was taken two weeks ago.Best regardThanksRichard

      Yep, that definitely sounds like the scam. Any type of sob story and the mention fees definitely should send up red flags.

      Glad I could be of assistance.
