This is a scam artist trying to scam people on Craigslist. The police department here is trying to locate and prosecute this low life scumbag. Beware [***] we are getting closer!
This same number just replied to an ad I'm running for an iPad. They offered $100 more than the asking price. They will pay for the shipping. What legitimate buyer offers more than the asking price, and says to ship when the ad clearly states "local only".
Was selling a tablet on craigslist. Son was schooled out of town. Wanted to send money by western union. Sent some confirmation number and told me it had a security question and would give me the answer once I had sent the item and confirmation number. Then offered to pay by paypal.
I know how this things worked pretty well. But sellers please be aware!!!
