Who called from 4069247646

Got this about 30 minutes after posting an item on Craigslist....still 4 sale? if yes kindly email me back at {[email protected]} because we are not allow to use cell phone at the military base.Thx

I got it too

Its a scam, and its all over this board.  The caller will offer to buy your item for your full asking price without seeing it.  He will pay by check or PayPal transfer, with extra to pay for shipping.  You wire the shipping fee to the shipper he chose.  That money clears instantly.  The check bounces or the PayPal transfer notice was forged.  You don't get any money from the buyer.  The buyer is the shipping company.  He keeps the shipping fee and vanishes.  You are out the shipping fee and whatever fee your bank may charge for overdrawing your account or depositing a bad check.

He won't talk to you on the phone because he does not want you to hear is pronounced foreign accent.

Stop all communication with this scammer.

Thank you for getting back to me. What's the condition and why are you selling it?  Any offer yet and are you the owner? I'm just asking to make sure I would not Be disappointed  in it so can you Assure me that it is in good state and that i will not be disappointed with it? I'm ready to pay your asking price, but the issue is I'm a Marine Officer and I'm not in my own state now, I'm on a secret mission in  Marine Corps Logistics Base Albany GA and  use of mobile phone is currently restricted at the military base, But I'm able to access email anytime as we will make use of laptop so my only quickest payment option is PayPal as i can send money via PayPal anytime.Since I'm requesting this transaction to be done via PayPal.
