So I posted an ad on craigslist trying to sell my car, I got a text message the following day from a number that wanted to buy my car I tried calling and this number calls me saying his name is Steve and then proceeded to text me to use paypal to pay me for the car, got an email from possibly paypal saying 21 grand was sent to my paypal account and all I had to do was send 500 dollars for an agent to pick up the car..I knew something was up so I called paypal and they said basically it's a fraud forwarded them all the emails and "Steve" from this number called me back "What happened" I told him I just had gotten off the phone with paypal and they had clarified that all those emails and everything going on is a scam. Then he hung up on me.
These guys are persistent even though I told them I don't know who they are looking for and was assured I would be taken off their call list, they keep finding numbers to call me from so that I have to keep adding numbers to the block list. Voice mail translator says its tiffany knows this week, and I thought it sounded like Jason Noahzeek or something. Nowhere close to the possible names that could be related to me or any name I've made up in the past. It is just too easy to scam people these days when you have machines calling everyone.
These people are a joke and a scam. I received a brand new phone # (never used) to sell my car on Craiglist, and the next day they started to call me. They scraped my phone # from Craigslist.
