Kinja'd!!!

I woke up this morning to find this post on my reddit front page, currently it has almost 10k in upvotes. Like many others, I was fully prepared for an awesome feel good story about someone inheriting a couple of cool old cars. I soon came to find a The Chive like hoax, but with even less evidence to support it.

I don’t feel like detailing all of things wrong with this letter and story, but I figured Oppo would get a kick out of it.

Someone else posted it here a little bit ago. I’ll admit I believed it and thought it was an interesting story. Then I moved on.

page 2: you’ll need to wire $1000 USD to XXXXXX as an escrow as part of the process. Thank you!

Putting whether or not it’s real aside, I must be all sorts of screwed up to most people, as I’m most interested in the Bronco.
