Yes, this number messaged me this morning as well and fortunately for me, I've recvd this message 4x from different numbers in the last 2 months. I replied back on text suggesting that I'm only interested in serious buyers who will love and care of my pups. I received several text back saying he is serious and would like to know more about my pups.
I'm not falling for it.
The full text message reads:
"Hello this is John, i am interested in the pups you posted on Craiglist. i am presently out of town and i will be paying with check which will include the cost of the pups and the pick up. when the check clears in your account, the vet will come to your location for the pick up. if you are interested you can get back to me with your full name and address so as to mail out the payyment.... Thanks
