[arin-discuss] Offer to buy IP space

[Ted Mittelstaedt]

I'm positive that this kind of "offer" will work like this, they
will send you a big check that you will deposit, then they will
say "oops the check was too large could you refund the difference"
then you send them a smaller check for the difference, and then
they disappear and their original check will bounce.

If I had a nickel for every time I had to explain that scheme
to a customer....
