This guy who I've talked to before (but don't know well at all) AIM'd me and wants me to give him money on FTP and he gives me money on AP... A few weeks ago he also asked me to lend him money till his check cleared (lol,wtf?) I obv said no...

But anyway, he said he'd send me 500 on AP for 300 on FTP and he said he'd send it first and I could wait till I get it.

Is there anyway, once I get the money in my acct, this could end up fucking me over?

Both of you can send your money to me for scam-proofing.

Smithers, use the amnesia ray.
You mean the revolver, sir?
Precisely.

500 for 300? sounds a bit dodgy...

I don't think I've ever seen an "Is this a scam?" thread that turned out not to be a scam.
