I am selling a Thomas the Train tank set on Craig's list and this number texted me the following which sounds like a fishing expedition/scam to which I did not resond: "Hey my name is Terry. I'm making inquiry and interested in the Thomas the Tank Trainsets - $300. I'm good with ur asking price but if you could hold it for me for a few days, I would be willing to pay $75 extra. I just re-located and I still have movers coming to get the rest of my stuff. I am willing to mail you a cashier check and as soon as it clears, Then I can have the movers get it along the rest of my things. If you could text me back and let me know that this works for you kindly get back to me with address and who to make the check out to. Thanks so much."

We just posted an ad on Craigslist last night and got a very similar message as you did, received just after midnight from: (615) 679-2481. This is the message:
