I posted an ad on Craigslist for a RZR and "Frank Rick" decided he wanted to buy it for $600 more than asking price, and that his shipping agent was to come pick it up once payment went through. Everything looked right because his number was from the right area code he claimed, but nope! I received a "PayPal" email that leads to an obviously fake PayPal website to someone who is looking for the scam. Beware, he was pretty convincing, but not convincing enough!

I received text from this number saying he will pay my asking price of $500. I texted "when would you like to pick up". reply was same as RZR Dude above. Buyer claims to be in California and will be sending his shipping agent and transaction will be through Paypal. My answer: Thank you but I do not do business with thiefs and scammers. Good bye!
This is A TYPICAL SCAM. i was also selling online and received a text from this phone number saying that he would pay more than i asked ( strange isn't it?) then same situation above , he was saying that he will be responsible for the shipment. Well , NEVER DEAL WITH SOMEONE YOU DON'T MEET IN PERSON. Check/paypal....it's always a trap. never deal with someone until you have the real cash in hands.
WATCH OUT!
Typical Scam got a message from the same number answering an add on Craig's list for a dining room saying they would pay asking price.. Once I mentioned cash they didn't respond back... Delete this number immediately
