After several years of marriage my daughter wanted to sell her wedding dress.
Put it on the Craig list for $300 and in a few days got a reply from Calif that somebody was wanting to buy it. A check came in the mail made out to her and it was for $1,000. She e-mailed them and they said were buying dress for a third party and somebody must have written check for too much and for her to deposit check send them a check for the $700 and the dress. Thing took on a bad taste so went to bank where check proved to be run through on a printer and was totally worthless. Thankfully bank took check to process for FBI and had the e-mail address, etc. She donated dress to charity instead of trying to sell again. Lots of slick folks out there so we all must be aware and cautious.

Here’s the most important fact – Jimmy’s food is great!! Open face roast beef and fried shrimp are my favorite!!

When I first glanced at this article on my phone all I saw was a picture of Jimmy and the title scam… I thought “oh no, Jimmy got arrested, where will I eat?” LOL

@ ohhhh man. This is correct! Sort of..Canadians do not pay taxes on any lottery or gambling winnings. BUT If an American wins a lottery in Canada they are required to pay the taxes as if you had won in the USA.
