Question about Craig's list?

  • I am new to using Craig's list and i read what they said about selling locally to avoid scams and I probably will, But i was just wondering if this seemed suspicious. The first thing i noticed is she didn't specify which item they are asking about.. and the English seems kind of off. I put x's in the name and email in-case its a real person. from Lxxxxa Wxxxxs <[email protected]> reply-to [email protected] to date Mon, Jul 19, 2010 at 11:40 PM subject music instr signed-by yahoo.co.uk hide details 11:40 PM (16 minutes ago) I am Lxxxa Wxxxxxs,i am interested in buying your item listed above and i would like to know if its still available because i will like to make an instant purchase,so pls do respond back to me with the Amount of your Item. so i can start making the arrangement to buy it. I will also like you to know that i will be paying via Cashier check or money order,and it will be over night payment due to the distance .Regarding the shipping,You do not have to bother yourself for the shipping as I'll instruct my Client to send down his shipper across to you for the pick-up of the (Item music instr ) as soon as you receive the payment.And also be (NOTIFY)that my client shall be including an (Over Payment) in the check he will be sending to you in which you shall deduct the money for the (Item )or the pick up of the (Item music instr) So i will need you to provide me with the following information to facilitate the mailing of the check 1.Your full name 2.Your mailing address be it residential 3.Your phone number.([email protected]}**Onc… again ,I will like you to know that you will not be responsible forshipping, i will have my mover come over as soon as you have your payment cashed **Have a nice day and God Bless You.

yeah this has bullshit written all over it. Cashiers checks can be forged then when you put it in your bank. They charge you all sorts of fees. This happened to my buddy with his car dvd/cd player. Plus the .UK would indicate it is out of the country. Tell this clown to * off.

SCAMMER

Isn't there a thing at the top of Craigslist that says in bold, red: AVOID ANY OFFERS WITH SHIPPING OR THE USE OF MONEY ORDERS OR CASHIERS CHECKS? So yeah. It's a scam, 99.9% of the time.

This is clearly a scam. First they say that it is a cashier check, money order and later a check. Secondly, there is no way someone is going to pay the expenses to send someone across the water when it is cheaper to ship it. Third, no one is going to entrust a stranger with more money what the item is worth. Lastly, some one tried this scam on me when I was selling on Ebay. They send you a fake check / money order in an amount over what you asked and have you send them back real money for the "overage". Not only do they have your item for free, but you end up paying them to do so. DON'T DO IT!!!
