(208) 689-7604   It's a scammer. This person tried to pull a stunt on me from a craigslist ad and, of course, I caught it right away.

Here is a copy of the email:

The way this scam works on craigslist is you send your info and this person sends you a counterfeit check for the merchandise but overpays by a whopping amount like, say, $1900. Then, this person contacts you and says he noticed the mistake and asks you to wire him the difference. It takes the bank about 10 days before they know the check is fake and you are on the hook for the money because you made the transaction with the bank.

Just trying to help.... Have a good day.

Wow, Thank God for this website! I posted an ad to sell my winter tires, and received this reply:

Chris..

Thank you Doug for posting this, the email raised a red flag when he asked for all the information I already had on the ad.

I recieved a text message from this number about an ad i posted on craigslist stating...Thanks for quick response...I'm Chris and have a particular need for it and am ready to buy it from you. I dont have time to come have a look cause of my job, I was engaged in different consignments in my new place of work. So I'll send my mover over for the pick up only after have made the payment. Is that ok?  


I knew something was up so I checked the number online and this is what I found. I thought I should post my experience so these people cant do this to anyone else.
