I had boat for sale on craigslist and this number contacted me with interest in the boat and said he wanted to purchase the boat for his son. He wanted my paypal email, full name and address. I told him i didnt have a paypal account but I do. I knew what this person was up to but I'm sure some dont.
I got an SMS (text) from this scammer within 10 minutes of posting a new ad on CraigsList for my motorcycle, asking (in all capital letters) "do you still have it for sale??"... are you kidding? - typical scammer, and they are getting better at it too (I had changed some of my phone number to words & letters but he still texted me... impossible to place an ad anymore these days
I posted a computer desk on Craigslist also. Same thing. Texted me wanting me to ship a solid oak computer desk and would pay me $50 for shipping. Offered to pay with PayPal also. Sounds suspiscious
Same as above .. Iforced them to give me their eamil to send papal invoice but each email address came back as not registerd on paypal.. Just dont give them any info ..
