Default Scam?

I just recieved this as a PM from someone listed as from Ca. Has anyone else had such messages? Are they fishing for an email address to infect? If so be careful!

Dear Oracle
I can ssend some pics to your email.

Advertised as 1914 T Ford. Been in the family for 50+ years and I am going to look at it Saturday. Any advice or observations?

Thanks Dennis

No doubt the feds want everyone off line for a few days while they install their top secret monitoring programs. Just another step towards 1984. BEWARE ! Pats SBC account was hacked last week and yesterday it was GONE, as in never existed. SBC swore it wasnt used for the last 10 years but she is a daily, as in 15 hours a day user, so that just cant be. Today it miraculously re-appeared. Hmmm... Keep an eye peeled on this and refuse to "unlog". Somethings rotten in Denmark... ws

I think the guy is legit, just unfamiliar with T's and looking for advice. From the Craig's list ad it looks like a fantastic deal on a 1914 touring. If I had the time and space for another T I'd be on the road to California right now.
