Anyway, the shipping will be started from here and will take only 3 days to reach your location. The phone will come Brand New, Unlocked, Full Accessories ,2 Years International Warranty ( you can use it at any licensed service ), Original Box, Receipts from Apple and my shop , has GPS , WIFI , 3G and many others. The phone is fully unlocked, you can use it with any simcard and any carrier all over the world. waiting for your reply if you want to know how this transaction can be completed in a safe way! Regards, Cris This is what I said: can I just pick it up we can meet somewhere in downtown la or somewhere you like your choice please get back to me Im willing to pay you $400 cash if we meet somewhere This is what the seller said: Soryy for the moment I'm located in Spain/Madrid for bussines . Please specify what colour you want white or black ? The payment process will be VERY secured for both of us. The payment will be made in a safe way. First I will go at the shipping company and start the shipping to your address, after that they (shipping company) will email you with your tracking number and more information about your safety and how to complete with the payment. You will have to send the money through Western Union on they're agent details and send them the Details from the Western Union receipt. THEY WILL KEEP the Money until you will receive and inspect the package. They will not release me the money in any circumstances until you receive and inspect the package. After you will receive the package you need to give them a confirmation if everything is okay and they can give me the payment or you want your money back . In this way we are both protected . p.s. To start the shipping to your address I will need from you : First Name : Last Name : Street Address : City : State : Zip Code : Country : Personal Phone # : The payment will be made in a safe way.

He's probably located in Nigeria, not Spain. Yes, this is a spam. Please don't become another victim. Our family caught a spammer and reported him... turned out there are a ring of spammers in Nigeria doing this sort of thing. From what I know of the Spanish language, he doesn't sound like a Spanish-speaking messing up his English. Don't do it. Don't send him ANY of your personal information, he will be able to hack back into your account. He'd have your name, email, address, phone number, and checking account number from the check you send him. He'd hack into your account. Do NOT send him ANY more information about you. Western Union won't hold the money, they will simply send it on through.

DEFINATELY a scammer. anyone who wants you to ship them your merchendise is a complete scam!! anything to deal with checks, cashiers checks or anything bro im telling you, its only real if they say "i can meet you at ____." OR "I can pay with cash" only if they meet you somewhere with cash is it real.

DO NOT DO THIS. You should never use western union or any other money wires to pay someone because there is no proof where and who recieved the money. I got scammed liked this off of EBAY. I doubt this person is legit. I think this person is going to take your money and then forget about you.

The only thing that bothers me is the "Madrin, Spain at the moment" reference. Scammers say that, that or Nigeria. Investigate and if you proceed, make sure you contact the REAL Western Union and ask if it could work like that. Don't follow a link he gives you that he SAYS is Western Union. Good luck! Personally, I stay away from Craigslist.

The Nigerian 419 email scam. I know it when i see it. I used to get alot of those myself. As you can closely see on the page. They want your personal information. Mainy your credit card numbers or bank account numbers. Even social security. Like the well known false ebay sites, this is a fallse craigslist site. Claiming they are in spain when in actuallty its all from Nigeria. Do not respond to them in anyway. You do this they will keep sending you emails asking for more information about you. Delete that email.
