Trasferring Executive looking to buy a home ...

In the depressed Market many of our houses are actually under valued when considering future values (two years or so). Tammy and I receive many letters like the following :
Dear Friend,

We are a firm that relocates executives from around the country and are looking to purchase a luxury home in your area We noticed your home and would like to know if you are interested in selling?

Please contact my assistant at (area code) xxx-xxxx at your earliest convenience so we can get the necessary information we need to make an offer on your property.

We look forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely,

John Doe

P.S. If you are serious about selling, please don't hesitate to contact us as our window of opportunity is closing quickly.

While this is not illegal it is misleading. these letters are from people wanting to "flip" under valued property for a profit, so talk to me first before selling, I may be interested (joking).

Here is a link to a descussion about such letters

Is this a Scam?
