facilitate the mailing of the check.

1.Your full name to be on the check
2.Home or work address
3.Your phone number.

**I will like you to know that you will not be responsible for moving
i will have my mover come over for the pick up as soon as you have
cashed the check**

Have a nice day.

N.B UPS does not deliver to a p.o.box address..

Nope. The dead give away is when they say Item

If they don't say what it is, its fake.

[CHEVROLADE]

yea then they asked for my phone number,when it was listed in the craigslist lmao

[ducky]

yeah its probably a Nigerian. I got scammed by one

[DBRODS]

100% scam..

[CHEVROLADE]

so the scam would be i get a no good check?

since i put (local pick up) on the ad,,he or she mentioned that they would get there mover to pick it up once i get the check?
lol im still waitting for there response,,ill keep yall updated

[RedHeartbeat]

tell him to have the "Mover" bring you cash for the "Item"

[GasGuzzler]

SCAM. I used to have a Harley for sale on there and got emails all the time asking my price and possible shipping for my item when the price was in the listing and most people don't buy bikes off CR and have them shipped...

haha been here before!! if you were to reply on for about 2 more messages...the person would "accidently" write the check for too much(stolen) and even compensate you for the inconvienience by giving you some extra money to go cash the stolen check for them and give the"mover"(associated scammer!) the extra grand most likely from the extra "1" they put in front of the amount on the check......worst part is the check is from somebodies account they stole and is written out to YOU and the scammer makes YOU go cash it that way if the police get involved it all comes back on YOU!!! these people are very un-original....same scams everyday but people keep falling for them...


....dont ask me how i know this!

[CHEVROLADE]

i aint gonna be falling for there b.s,thanks for yalls info on this..
