A great "fishing" story

I received this message on eBay last night. It came on my second account which has an 11 feedback. This is the first one I have received so I guess it was the newer account.
What's the most and strangest everyone has received?
Good Evening,
I noticed you bought a 1960 Roberto Clemente Topps Card on here. I am about to sell a few of my high end signed items from my collection. Babe Ruth Signed Ball, Lou Gehrig Ball, Roger Maris Signed Ball. Mostly players Ruth, Gehrig, Clemente, Wagner, Robinson, Mathewson and Foxx. All my items come authenticated and with a Certificate of Authenticity each. Let me know which players you are interested in and I will send pictures and prices. I am selling these for less then half of what I paid for them as I hit hard times in the stock market. Apparently, eBay has a new policy where they dont allow email addresses to be shown in emails between ebayers, so I am going to send you a photo in this email of a few of the baseballs I am selling, as well as my email address so you will be able to see it in the picture, and email me directly. I am up in Waukegan, Illinois visiting family but will check my email often. Thanks for your time and Have a Great Night, Steve

Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.
<< <i>I find it hard to believe ANYONE has hit hard times on the stock market lately. >>
You are kidding right? Take a look at the momentum stocks. Getting smoked.
TSLA. NFLX, GOOG, GILD, etc.
The market reached a peak on the highest level of margin debt ever and these stocks are now paying for it. Obviously it may be just part of his tale but certainly there are plenty feeling this decline.

Who are you to doubt his story? It's so plausible.

Just wait till when the gov'ts funds that have been propping the market up fully get yanked out. This support of $$$ into the mkt. has in part come from the $85 billion per month being pumped into the economy. It is the hope of the gov't that since the economy is turning around for the better(?) the economy/mkt. can stand on it's own. Time will tell.

I am in the camp that doesn't think we can fix our problems. The math doesn't work.
Many of these stocks ran so far it was almost unimaginable and when they correct, it is painful and violent.
The key area to watch is 1815 on the SP 500. You break that on a closing basis and things will get ugly very quick.
<< <i>My uncle in Nigeria is sitting on 20 unopened cases of 1952 Topps high number packs. He acquired the cards when he was a Prince under the King Mungo Tumbo. Unfortunately King Mumbo Tumbo was overthrown in 1982 and so my uncle has been incarcerated ever since. Please send me $50,000. I will use that money to bail out my uncle. Upon release, he will show his gratitude to you by donating his 20 cases of 1952 Topps to you. >>
