Who ever owns this number is a scam artist trying to get you to wire them money and sending fraud checks  Texas and Arkansas

this guy sends texts on craigslist saying he will buy your car and he wants you to transfer money to a shipper via western union.  SCAM!!  His number is from texas, the check has a virginia address, the package was sent from indiana, and he wants you to send the transfer to new york.

This guy sent me the same thing here's what the message said, "(1/3) I am interested in it and I'm ready to purchase it from you Asap. I am ok with the price and i perfectly understand the present condition as stated in the (2/3)Ad. I'm ready to proceed with payment via Certified Check. I'm in no rush with you till funds has been cleared in your bank once you deposit it. Kindly get (3/3)back with the Name & Address: City: State: Zipcode, to Mail the check to." What the hell is going on???

I have the duplicate message as Steve
I have responded as whom I am taking with, so I can have it on record and then I was going to as for him to copy his driver Id and send it to.
I was suspicious of this person.
