1. wow
2. No way I would fall for this, if it sounds to good to be true then it probably is.
3. To my knowledge,Yahoo! Finance does not process any sales transactions. Finance is primarily an information service. Yahoo! has other services available such as Auctions and Classifieds to assist Yahoo! users in selling items.
4. IT IS A SCAM! Send the money to me instead! tony@scamsalot.com
