Scammer on Craigslist. I listed an item for sale and he inquired on the item and wanted to get my name and address to make payment or something. Then he would send someone to pick up my item.
I too, listed a for sale item at $90. I copied out text conversation and I'd like to share it. Can u explain what he said to you, and how u left off? Thanks..
856-477-3175
HIM: Large Antique Oil Painting - $90 Item still available for sale?
ME: Yes.
HIM: I'l be paying via money order. If you provide me with your name and mailing address payment will be mailed to you
ME: Why? Where r u located?
HIM: I'm not available at the moment, taking care of some other business. I line and own my business in PA though I'm at a party right now. I will call u tomorrow All i need is your mailing address and name you want payment made out to, i'll facilitate payment to you
HIM:Or if you prefer tomorrow its ok. Do enjoy your party
ME: Good morning I will be going to the gym shortly. Please explain why u want to send money order ? R u asking me to hold it for u? If so, when would u pick it up. It sounds suspicious to me that u would want to send a money order to a stranger for $90. Don't u think?
I too, listed an item for sale at $90, and I copied our text conversation and I'd like to show u. Can u tell me what was said between the two of u? Thanks..

I too listed an item on craigslist. Same exact number, same text with the title "Item still for sale?" Fortunately I found this site, and replied with "[***]." Never heard back.
