What Kind Of Scam Is This

Do you think this is some kind of scam buyer!?

I have my saddle for sale on horseclicks.com
Here's my ad if you care:
http://www.horseclicks.com/saddles/1gd2b...
Anyways, this buyer contacted me and said this:
"I came across your item and I'll like to know the following questions regarding the ad. Q#1. How long have you owned it? Q#2. a) Have you owned it from new? Q#3. Why are you selling it? . Q#4. In your opinion, what sort of condition is it Q#5. How much are you asking for it? . Q#6 Do you accept a ( Cashier Check ) as a mode of payment have the response to these question in your earliest convenience"

I replied answering the questions:
"Thank you for contacting me.
I've won this saddle new in 2005. That would be 4 years ago. I'm selling it because I ordered a new saddle and I need extra cash to pay it off.
It's like new. I've only rode it it enough to break in the stirrups. It looks brand new, except for a little black mark that would be covered by your leg when you ride in it.
I'd like to get $450 out of it. They sell for $650 brand new from the
company. Here is the website below.

Depending where you're located, I'd prefer to meet in person to exchange the saddle for CASH and make sure it fits your horse and that you like it."

And she replied:
"Thanks for your ouick response in this transaction now that the iterm
is in good condition you can now get back to me with the this
infromation so i can isuied out the check and send to you

1 YOUR FULL NAME AND ADDRESS
2 AMOUNT YOU WANT ON THE CHECK
3 AND YOUR CONTACT PHONE NUMBER

make sure you get back to me so i can issued out the check and send to you


Hope to read from you soon

Thanks"


Okay, now why doesn't she wanna try it out? Or ask about me shipping the saddle or anything? Is she just getting my address to send crap mail? I'm so confused about this. It just seems really off to me.
What do you think?

The GI bill is a scam kind of?

after i got out last year from the Navy, i started college full time and of course i receive the GI bill.

but however, the funny rules and such about it all of a sudden come up.

for one, the school includes it the cost of attendance, which means i get less of a student loan than normal because the GI bill, with the student loan can not exceed cost of attendance. no big deal but i thought the GI bill was just extra income to help out quality of life, to find out everyone can receive the same amount of money one way or another.

also, the GI bill only pays while going to college, so in during my 3 week break between spring and summer class i get no money, as if i can just go out to get a job to cover expenses for those 3 weeks.

the GI bill is good, but it is not worth joining the military just for it. my wife goes to college also and receives the same amount as i do through grants and loans, and at the end, she will have all of a 100-200$ loan payment.

Is this some kind of scam?

Write them back and tell them to provide you with proof of such debt and that they are the ones entitled to collect on it.

What kind of scam or mind trick was this?

I was on a train and this normal looking old man got on and came sat next to me.. struck up a convo.. small talk. Then started asking me very specific questions about things he definitely should not have known. Like about the death of a friend a few years ago and about the affair I had last year, among other things.

I got upset and alarmed but kept quiet. Didn't ask how he knew. I didn't think to give him the satisfaction of seeing me "gotten" by his trick, as impressive as it was. It took everything I had in me to keep a poker face and get off the train as quickly as I could and as far away as I could from him.
