Agreed to a price on a Craigslist item...received a check for $1400 over the amount.
Definitely a scammer...advised to forward an correspondence to the postal inspector.

Can you explain your post in more detail....

Wanted to buy something from me off craigslist. Said he would send me a certified check in the mail. Told him cash only at time of pickup. Very sketchy. Kept insisting on me giving him my information. DON'T SELL TO THIS GUY!!!

Just received a text from this number in reference to craigslist ad. Said he wanted to purchase items and would mail me a check on monday. was wanting my info: name and address. When told only local pickup he kept saying he had to mail check. I looked up his number and found that this was done to several other people! DO NOT SALE TO THIS PERSON!!!

Just received a text today from this number in reference to craigslist ad I posted regarding my bedroom set. We agreed on the price and said he would mail me a certified check on Monday. He said he was sorry that he only does check and as soon as I have the check cashed, I'll have my money. He also asked me for my name and address and that movers will come and pick up the furniture. When I insisted on the cash payment only, he stopped texting. Clearly, he's a repeat offender who will stop at nothing to scam others. Is there any way to get this guy arrested?
