here the message they sent to me--
"The car it's still available, has 82,947 miles, manual transmission. It's in perfect condition, no engine/electric problems (4 Cylinder 1.8 Liter Turbo), no accidents/liens/loans. Exterior no scratches, never been repainted, interior no rips/tears/stains, never smoked inside. I have all the car's manuals, 2 spare of keys, title,documents. I'm selling the car because my child of only 19 died 4 months ago in a car accident, a drunk driver hit him and his fiancee. He was with his fiance's car coming to our home at his little brother birthday of 10 years old. This VW Golf was his car and it brings me bad memories and that's the reason I want to sell it. The last price is $2,900.
Me and my husband travel a lot with our business and we want to make this deal through eBay's Vehicle Purchase Protection Program. I just need your full name, full shipping address, home/cell # so I can open a case (with no further obligation or fees). eBay will contact you with all the Transaction/shipping details you will need. We will take care of the shipping, so don't worry.
We hope to hear soon from you."
i have a strong feeling this is a scam what do you think?



Answer
Are you kidding me ?

Can you read ?

eBay DOES NOT HAVE a Vehicle Purchase Protection Program

OFFERS TO SHIP CARS ARE 100% FRAUDULENT

You can sidestep would-be scammers by following these common-sense rules:

DEAL LOCALLY WITH FOLKS YOU CAN MEET IN PERSON - follow this one simple rule and you will avoid 99% of the scam attempts on craigslist.
NEVER WIRE FUNDS VIA WESTERN UNION, MONEYGRAM or any other wire service - anyone who asks you to do so is a scammer.
FAKE CASHIER CHECKS & MONEY ORDERS ARE COMMON, and BANKS WILL CASH THEM AND THEN HOLD YOU RESPONSIBLE when the fake is discovered weeks later.
CRAIGSLIST IS NOT INVOLVED IN ANY TRANSACTION, and does not handle payments, guarantee transactions, provide escrow services, or offer "buyer protection" or "seller certification"
NEVER GIVE OUT FINANCIAL INFORMATION (bank account number, social security number, eBay/PayPal info, etc.)
AVOID DEALS INVOLVING SHIPPING OR ESCROW SERVICES and know that ONLY A SCAMMER WILL "GUARANTEE" YOUR TRANSACTION.

What is the song playing in the Super 8 credits after they show The Case?




penmanship


It's a famous song cos i hear it on tv but i don't know the title


Answer
The song playing after The Case mini movie during end credits is My Sharona by The Knack. The kids also sing it earlier in the movie when they are waiting to be picked up in the car to shoot the scenes at the train station.

This is one of 11 songs in Super 8. You can find all the songs, scenes they were in and downloads here: http://reelsoundtrack.wordpress.com/2011/06/10/super-8-soundtrack/
