Real life scams , whats the best you've seen ?

Had another shipping scam attempt today. Messed with him for a bit to make sure he wasn't just a customer with poor English. The scam is they make an order and request you pay for the shipping directly to their shipping company- which isn't a real company. The shipping company never shows up to pick up the order and they just keep the shipping money.

Working in the banking industry, I see a lot of scams targeting lonely elderly people. Thankfully I live in a small town and can usually know some sort of kin that can help step in and prevent the fraud. I've stopped shoe boxes of cash going out, wires to boyfriends in africa, alleged celebrity girlfriends "needing money". We've seen them all!
