He says his name is Fred and wants to purchase your item from craigslist and have you set up a paypal account and connect it to your checking account. He is a scammer.
Same thing happened to my husband. We reported it through Craigslist, is there anything else we can do?
We did not get scammed out of money because I caught it when the emails regarding the transaction came from an address other than PayPal's. but
My husband even gave him an address, should we be worried?
