He also tried to scam me. I had my camera on craigslist and said he'd pay for shipping and such... But wouldn't give me a direct offer. Said it was for his brother who is studying in Africa. My husband didn't recognize the area code so he looked it up and saw all these posts. Glad he did! I never would have shipped without the cash in my hand, anyway, but, still glad I didn't get into the middle of this person's scam! Hopefully no one else got too far into it!
got a text about my camera. said that he wanted to buy it. he was in rehab so he couldn't talk in person. said he would pay asking cost, and asked if we would have it shipped to Africa. he would include shipping cost, it would be for his grandson. not sure is this is a scam but pretty sure, from looking at the other posts. thx.
