Same with me, put add on Craigslist and got text from Rick Smith saying he will pay via paypal. Received an identical text from another person and number - knew at that point this was a scam
Posted an ad on Craigslist and had this idiot try to scam me. Asked me to send him money via Western Union in exchange for his Paypal payment. Guess who was supposed to pay first? Yeah, some people must fall for this every once in awhile.
Received call wanting to buy couch on graiglist text was suspicious and tried to recall the number and received a message saying "you reached a texting only number"
I posted an ad on Craig's list to sell my furniture for $3500. Rick Smith sent a text from that text only number. Said he would send the money from PayPal without even looking at the furniture.
