was working with someone on a deal thru craigslist texting back and forth @ #424-666-7732 and when the deal was reported to paypal it was a scam the person tried to call me from this #424-204-5285 to say that it wasn't I just hung up on them. TOTAL SCAMMERS WATCHOUT they have multiple phone #
Same thing. This guy is trying to buy something from me on Craigslist. He is texting back and fourth, claiming he is buying the item for his cousin. He is offering me almost $200 more than I am asking to pay for shipping and hastle. He wants to use paypal for the transaction. I called him out and now he wont reply. Total scam. Watch out for this moron.
I have been getting the same text recently. It seems like some type of unusual scam. I found this online before really going further. I told the buyer to call me before I send my paypal account in order to prevent some hacking issues. He did call. Hispanic origin. And said he wants it shipped to his cousin. When I asked him to send the address, he sent Dennis Kenneth, 4 Brethren Close, Ejigbo, Lagos, Nigeria 23401.
I cant say if I will continue with the shipment at this point.
This is definately a scam. They want to commit to making a payment but want shipping to occur before the funds are put into paypal and clear. STAY AWAY
Just got a text about a CraigsList add I posted, the person offered me $100 more than I am asking for. Wanted me to use my paypal account for payment and shipping. When I told him no he became really pushing so I typed in the cell number and found this page. So yeah, watch out.
