You may have been subjected to something like scam #1, as described at

That site also shows how other 800notes visitors have reduced the number of telephone scams and telemarketing calls they receive. (And, a link to Amazon's phone blocker devices and apps is there).
1 hour ago and at 12:34 last night about two items I have for sale
on Milwaukee Craigslist. Promising certified check and a freight courier.
Sounds a little suspicious. Trying to get him to actually call me.
Tried to buy my car that I was selling for $2500 on craigslist, mailed me a certified check from US Bank for $6000 saying that I was to western union the remainder to his "shipping agent". I took the check to the local US Bank branch and asked them to verify the check first and the account came back with several fraudulant charges.
