Who called from 5616007369

Phone # answered an ad on Craigslist requesting to send me a cashiers ck

Fair on your price. I will mail you a cashiers check which will also include my movers payment,cash it at your bank, deduct your payme

I got the same # and message regarding a craigslist post.

Was it a legitimate message?

NO, Mary. It's a scam, well known.

The check they send you, which is for more than your asking price, is meant to cover the fee for thair shipper. It's a lie.

You deposit the check, send the "extra" to the alleged shipper, and "keep" the rest for your item.

Problem is, days after you've sent off the payment to the shipper and maybe spent some of the rest from that check, the check will be returned as fake.

It's been going on for a long time. Google CRAIGS LIST SCAM and stay away from deals like this. Deal in cash only.

I received the same text just a little bit ago.  Is this a scam?
