Got a text from this number at first on 3.22.13... I knew it was a scam, so I started messing with them... HARD! I'd love to punch this person straight in the face.
I asked their name and they replied it was "Thomas Hill." They reported they were buying my item for their cousin as a surprise and that an agent would be coming to pick it up. They wanted to use PayPal as a means to transfer money and insisted that they were out of the country.
hahaha... it's funny because it was an actual person texting me back! I even went as far as to ask if they were an honest buyer! And that I would only sell to them if they met me to discuss current issues with my item, sign the bill of sale, and make a cash only deal saying, "THAT is how I do business. End of story. Honest, simple. Thank you."
hahaha... they replied "I am an honorable man and do not appreciate the tone of 'yout' text."
I further asked when they would be returning from "offshore" and they replied, "it going to take a while." Yes... "it." Their texting grammer is awful.
So I continued messing with them... haven't heard anything back since! ...scum bag!
I wish I had the means to track them down. Maybe I could make a living hunting craigslist scammers!
