i got a call from him to. he almost took me for $1700

This person txted me about an item I had for sale on Kijiji, asked me to mail it to Nigeria, I got everything set up, paid for postage and has the package at the post office, awaiting interac confirmation number to release the funds, turns out to be a bogus interac website, using all their contacts and web layout was very crafty, I luckily had enough time to race down to post office to stop package from being sent, wrote abusive txt back, he/ she claims no idea why it didn't work! Always google the person who is trying to contact you, chances are they have scammed someone else and that person has read about it, I hope these scammers get what they deserve, karma is a [***]!

Same deal, found my add on kijiji and played the "don't know english well" card. Walk away...

same number just tried the tactic on me via text on an item i posted on kijiji. I responded item was being sold locally and no paypal or out of country shipping is done. Good idea to google the number and set some 'firewalls' on sale items.

Same as dudders, got a text about an expensive item on kijiji for a family member as a gift to be shipped over seas.  Be careful........
