Person answered a Craigslist ad and said he would come by in the afternoon. Wanted my address but I was suspicious, so I said he would need to call when he was almost here. Finally he called and asked why I was suspicious of giving my address out! Then he said he was coming from Centralia, Washington and going by the Portland Airport to pick up a friend. He said he would come about 4 o'clock (just when I had to leave), another red flag! But I'd already given my address. Then he called saying he couldn't make it at 4:00. I said I'd be back at 5:00, so he said he'd come then. But he didn't! I should have followed my original instincts! By the way, this person uses the letter "u" instead of writing "you" and other abbreviations...usually this is also always a red flag!
