<p>[QUOTE="Ken Dorney, post: 3591541, member: 76086"]I've had similar experiences over the years. One time I had a friend in the United Arab Emirates send me some coins and antiquities. It was one of those deals where I pay only after receiving them and was happy with the deal. I was. So, I went to the bank to make a transfer. When they noticed the country I was sending money to the teller got the bank manager to check it all out. At first they feared I was sending terror money or something. But after explaining they then feared I was the potential victim of some sort of Nigerian style scam. It took a lot of explaining and telling them repeatedly that I already had the goods in hand and that he needed to be paid for said goods. The whole process took about 45 minutes and in the end they still thought it was some sort of scam.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
