This is exact message to me...they send millions of the same message to everyone on CL and others selling sites. These demons are here called nephilim cleaver indeed here to harass us but not as cleaver as HEYEY Elohim of Hosts. Pray protection over youself that our Father keep us alert in these end time to the tricks of the devil. Love and Peace. Fill out form on FBI site is all you can do. Frankly I'm not sure they care really but if enough good people complain it may stop.
No phone call exchanged, but had the same email experience. Name on his Gmail account was Disney Smith. Got the same kind of check from Wachovia Bank for my San Francisco Bay Area Craigslist item. The instructions were also to send the excess funds via Western Union to Patricia Delgrosso in North Tonawanda, NY. In his last email to me he gave the phone number 570-234-1135.
The Alameda County Sheriff's Dept. now has possession of the check and my forwarded string of emails.
***** If you all really want to help stop this guy, please call your local non-emergency police department, FILE A REPORT, and say that you're WILLING TO PRESS CHARGES for the attempted fraud. The more of us who can do that, the stronger a case they can get, if they ever do catch him. *****
Too late, we heard of this scheme-after we cashed a check from Wachovia Bank from Nelly Robbert. I called our bank today; they said the check had cleared. What gives? Not sure whether we are being scammed or not. Made us run around to Western Union and send an exorbitant amount ($1500.00) to Patricia Delgrasso, same address as above, for a $400.00 table. If our check cleared, what's going on? Stay tuned; I'll let you know if, upon further review, Wachovia Bank finds the check fraudulent. My gut tells me they will and we're out the money. Yuck. Some ugly people out there.
Well, we were indeed scammed. After we stop banging our heads against the wall for our stupidity, we'll cough it up to 'live and learn'. Visit this website about these other online frauds: http://onguardonline.gov/index.html
An attempt was made by this guy to buy a chevy tailgate from me for $150 after I posted to Craigslist. I was unaware of the fraud potential and told him he could send payment. Once check was recieved, I realized it must be a scam. Wrote him a scathing email reply calling him a scam artist. Must be he was personally offended because since then he has been using my business name and address as a return address on the face of the UPS express envelope used to send these fraudulent checks. Seems like UPS could be key in catching this guy. He probably can be identified by UPS but no, we don't want to infringe on his "right to privacy" now do we!!! He is sending all these checks from Wilkes-Barre PA area. UPS is not very willing at all to share any shipping info. They are facilitating. Driving me NUTS like he intended I'm sure. I would certainly be happy to see this scumbag apprehended.
