SCAM! This number (and others listed here) contacted me in response to an ad on CraigsList for a Harley motorcycle. Happened as soon as I posted or reposted the ad. No questions regarding condition or price. Just wanted set up pick up and to give me my money. Wants to use PayPal, wants my email and account info, wants to pay me extra for the person to haul it since they are not local. Does not want to talk in person for various reasons. Look out for the following numbers that use similar stories, including the one about the Military guy who is overseas and wants to buy it for his loving father as a surprise. The numbers are: 323-844-5611, 224-795-4611, 208-903-8964. This next one (818-738-7798 ) is a telemarketer with about 80 online reports. I’m sure there will be more numbers to come, but the story is about the same.
HERE IS WHAT YOU CAN DO besides reporting their numbers. Luckily, before I posted my ads, I got a FREE phone number from Google just for this purpose. It’s just like a mobile phone with VOICE MAIL, TEXTING, and CALLING. Also it rings to my phone, and I can call or text them back from my phone, and all they see is the number from Google, not my own. Most importantly, you can BLOCK their number and you won’ be bothered again till they use a new number. I recommend this for anyone that does not want to give out his or her own number
