Most likely a scammer from craigslist! Wanted to pay by money order and then said he overpaid and wanted me to wire the ovepaid amount back to him through western union!

It's a scam of course. But if you want to have some fun ask for their address to mail it back to them. Take the money order to your Post Office with any other information (letter it came in) you have. They'll examine it.

I received the same message from the same number in Redding, Ca. And it definitely was from one of my Craigslist ads.

same here!

Same here too. What a low life.
