    Apparently the scammers have branched out and are sending emails, now.  I just got one today, and one yesterday.  Beware of the piano that needs a home....... Clark

    Just got one today through the University of South Carolina. I warned them, but will follow up.

    It's been around a bit. I've warned all the teachers I tune for and asked them to pass it on.

    I got one a couple of weeks ago.  Her husband had played the 6' Yamaha grand  for years and there was just no way she could sell it when her husband would have wanted her to give it to a deserving person.  I wrote back and told her she should try to sell it and for a fee I would come appraise it for her.  Never heard back..haha.

    This has been circulating for about 6 months now. 

    What's the old saying - if it seems too good to be true, 
    it probably is.
