This person just tried the same scam on me today. I listed and item on craigslist, then he promply replies, saying that he is intrested in purchasing the item. He then contacts me asking me to send his pick up agent money the I he will release the remaining balance to me... uhhhhh. NO!!! Get lost buddy!!
Same thing! Scam on Craigslist. Said his name was Gary Hughes. Asked for money gram transfer. The fake Paypal payment email looked very legit. Beware! The name on the transfer from papal was Wayne Stewart and the money gram contact was Sandra L. Thornton from Coldwater OH.
