This number texted my son in response to his Craigslist add to sell his car. Told my son he was in the military and couldn't come look at the car, but wanted to buy it. Then he sent a "pending" PayPal payment that instructed my son to go to Walmart and wire the $500 transport fee. Of course we knew it was a scam, and an easy to spot one at that. But I wanted to warn as many people as I can.
