Who called from 5309214465

i got an email for a truck listed on craigslist.. just seemed like an odd reply.. so i searched.. even more  strange to find your post here within a half hour of my own inquiry..

I just got an email about my car on CL too.  Email did seem odd.  Not calling back.

Same thing here, got an email about my truck on CL... "Call 530 921 4465, my name is Amber. etc.."

Won't call it's a scam.

Following is the email I got regarding my CL posting, was suspect since it's a CA # and I am in FL...

HI I AM INTERESTED IN YOUR CAR  LISTED ON CL. I AM LOOKING TO BUY THIS WEEKEND SO IF YOU COULD GIVE ME A CALL AT 530 921 4465 THAT WOULD BE GREAT. MY NAME IS AMBER. THANK YOU

Great resource here!

INTERESTINGGGGGGGG! I got an email from this person about a car I have listed. I'm in Redding, CA and their number is local to me. I'd not have thought much about it, except that I noticed two emails (one as the sender and one as the reply-to), and whereas the reply-to seemed okay, the sender was clearly a nonsensical @hotmail.com address ([email protected]). Same number, same name (Amber). It would be interesting if a scammer lived near me (VERY interesting, in fact), but I'm betting the person is in Nigeria or something and this number just somehow forwards?

Hotmail attaches the sender's IP address from their ISP and it shows "omta06.emeryville.ca.mail.comcast.net" as the SMTP server the email was sent through, but the IP they logged into the SMTP server with is showing 76.98.64.41, which (when I do a host lookup) shows that it resolves to "c-76-98-64-41.hsd1.nj.comcast.net", which is pretty clearly New Jersey. Oh crap, you don't think Snookie is trying to scam us, do you!? :-)
