I have also received text messages from this number regarding a private furniture ad. Did not ask any questions or ask to reconsider price just said he would pay us full amount by check or money order and was very insistent to get my name and address.... I would say scammer. As soon as I told him I felt this is a scam I never heard back from him.
I placed a local ad free paper and received a text from this number at 5am. Surprised by the out of town area code but then doesn't always mean the person is not local. Text did not have complete sentences. No direct response to my question to him. Did say his name was Jeremy. Asked me to send my name and address so he could send check or money order, once cleared said he would arrange shipping. Red flag was that he didn't respond to my direct questions but sent the identical text again. So I decided to look up the number. Glad I did
