Hi,

 I believe this number has been used to scam people. The individual that posses this number has contacted me regarding the purchase of a car i advertised. They claimed they are unavailable at the moment and therefore cannot come to inspect the vehicle. They further asked for my PayPal email, so they can pay me online  and shortly after I recieved a email that stated, the individual has paid me but in order for PayPal to release the money, I have to pay for the shipping to a US address and reply to the email with the reciept. Due to my suspicion, I contacted PayPal and they have confirmed it is indeed a scam. The person introduced themself as David Grant and contacted me via text messages. Thank you for your time.

Just to confirm the name it is David Grants* not David Grant. Thank You

Thanks for posting! I just got a text from that same number signed "David" offering to pay full price for the car via PayPal and have somebody else pick it up for him. Sounded too good to be true. Thanks to the original poster for taking the time to describe what they went through.

This person introduced their self as Elizabeth Moore, I contacted them in regards to a vehicle they had for sale on Craigslist. I texted her and she immediately wanted to email instead of text, so we emailed back and forth. Two days ago she told me she was selling a perfect condition 02 acura for only $1000 which I was skeptical about from the beginning so I proceeded to get more info. I was then told she was selling it because it was her deceased son's car who died in a car accident along with her husband two months ago by a drunk truck driver. I replied and waited two days to today for a reply. I literally just received a reply about 10 mins ago, stating she lives in Kansas, MO with her parents ( only family she has left) and she can have the car sent to me. All u would need to do is send her $1000 plus shipping fee and I would have 5 days to decide whether I wanna keep it or ship it back and get a refund. She/he/whoever then asked for my address, phone number, and name. Once I read that I looked the number up online because things definitely weren't adding up anymore but thanks to you guys I now know. I would never wire money anyways but I'm glad I can now tell them to stop emailing me.
