Not a car, but scambaiting at its absolute finest - The Powerbook Prank: He wanted a Powerbook. We gave him a P-P-P-Powerbook!
Been around for some time on the geekier side of the net. Should give you all a giggle.

A bit of a hi-jack to the thread CABE, but very funny, non the less.

Apologies, but the thread had already started the long slippery slope into hilarity long before I showed my ugly face 
But isn't there a second potential problem after cheque clearing - if the cheque turns out to be faked/stolen?
If there's funds in the account it will clear, but the fraud will be spotted after that - a week, a month, etc? Or do banks pick up the tab in that case?

I don't know, that's what I thought had changed, however with my recent experience with taking LloydsTSB to the Ombudsman, having them adjudicate in our favour only to then tell us that the bank is not actually responsible for the consequences of it's actions I'm not so sure.
