I didn't get an actual spoof today but I did get a request from someone asking if I would "Donate" a large lot of fly-tying materials I currently have on auction to the Boy Scouts. I have a $150 price on this huge group of items. Maybe this request is legit...but I kinda doubt it. I certainly wouldn't be soliciting over the internet to eBay sellers if I were looking for donations. I'd probably do it locally. But then again, I don't trust people either. I just think it's someone looking to get something for nothing. Just a hunch, but I'm usually right on the money when it comes to scammers. And NO, it doesn't take one to know one.
