Same scam as above. Craigslist. New phone number used in Jan 2017, is 213 822-3023. No name affiliated with phone number on search. Texter identifies self as Chris Murphy.
IF YOU RECEIVE A CHECK FROM MENARD TITLE & ABSTRACT CO., INC. DO NOT CASH IT. This is a scam, the Chris Murphy guy has gotten our information and is sending out checks to people with our company name. We are reporting this to the FBI, our bank has been notified, the funds are not there for you to cash your check because the account is no longer valid. IF you deposit one of these checks to your account or wire from your account, you will be giving the scammer access to your account.
I just made the mistake of having Chris Murphy send me a check for $50 more than asking price. What did post office say when you brought them the check. I'm concerned now that he has my address.
I had the same thing happen. Same name using a different number. Something that started with a 2. Im glad I was right in telling him to get lost after I suspected a scam. He got irritated via text, but I told him I would report him if he didn't leave me alone. He hasn't contact me since. Same address Chris Murphy 210 W Lewist St #21, San Diego Ca 92103
Just got my check from Chris Murphy in San Diego. Address is 210 West Lewist Street . The phone number he is using is from a texting app.
I had a posting on Craigslist and same thing happened to me. He would add an extra $50 and have his movers come get it. When the check got there I was supposed to deposit it and deduct my $300 and give the rest to the "movers". Got the check today and it was $1,980.32. The check is from Texas Capital Bank and Stewart Title Company. DO NOT FALL FOR THIS. I would've if my neighbor didn't have the same thing happen to her a few years ago
