Now, I am skeptical and a little leary but am wondering if I should respond. I am torn about this ad and asking for advice as I do realize this could be a scam or something worse.
What would any of you do?

I would give her a working machine that would do what she says she needs to do. One of two things can happen 1) You ingore her request for help, when you have the capability to help, and you know you are going to get to talk to Jesus about it some day 2) She screws you over, she will get to talk to Jesus about it someday. Best choice for you, give her the machine. That's just me, but you can sleep easier, knowing you did the right thing.
