Craigslist scammer. Be aware.

Yes he trying to buy my rims and said he only can text and no calls and he want my name and address

scammer

Hey bud did you ever comply to that info that individual requested and what did you do after that

Eventually that same nmbr texted me and was interested in the item im selling on creigslist and asked for my address and im just waiting for the check he mailed today for the purchase of the item i was selling one thing bothered me was that i asked for a pic of the. Check to confirm the sale but did not send it he texted me that he had already send it i will post an update and see what happens

That number is trying to buy from me and wants to send a check in the mail. Seems a little suspect

Same scam. Want's my address to send his mover to pick up rims. High-pressure to get my address to get me a certified check. Says he can't talk and can only text. Interesting that the individual is in such a hurry that he needs my 411 right now at 9:30PM. Nobody is cutting Certified Checks as this time. Seems to only text in the evening also; the first was last night around same time then quiet all day today. Fishy.

SCAM SCAAM SCAM FOR SURE A SCAM! I just taught this jerk about 200 new swear words and I suggest that you do the same. This IS the person and people that need to be jailed around the entire world....JAIL THESE THIEVES

he did the same thing to me. trying to sell my rims and he wants my address so he can send me a certified check and have his movers pick it up.....no thanks scammer. thanks to everyone on this post for warning :)

I just recieved the same call this morn. I agreed and then searched the internet and found this blog. Opps.
I wrote back after giving my name and address and said this looks like a scam and said the deal is off !
Dont know what to expect now.... Crap....

It was a text instead of a call....

Scam, scam, scam. Rims wanted would pay extra 50 to hold until check arrive. Well check arrived and it was for $1,500 MORE. CHECK FROM BUSINESS IN NY, Bank in NY. Both legitimate addresses. Signed by different name than on USPS Priority envelope. Return address was in Martinez, Ca. But street address was for Paul Quinn College in Dallas, TX. BUT listed Richland College (also in Dallas) under the name Mark Jude. Contacted by another number also of (650)-889-7592 which shows to be landline out of Half Moon Bay, California.

Glad you were awrare it was a scam!

Lurkers, read this ... carefully!

Extract:
"In these cases, the depositor most likely will be held responsible for the entire amount of the fraudulent check."

Instead of cashing the check, take it and the envelope in which it came to the post office.  They will use it as evidence and pursue the scammer.

Seriously you people have to think about it?

Tomas,

what happened?  did you end up getting a check?

My son fell for the same scam. I just received the check for light bar he was selling to a guy. It came Priority Mail from Mark Jude, Richland College and was written for an extra $50 for holding the check and an extra $1600 for a mover/handler to pick up the item. I warned my son this afternoon about this sounding like a scam when he called me telling me about the deal and to watch for the check. After searching for the Check name CMI Corp - and the senders name -I found this site.
Can you tell me if anything happened to you after you discovered this was a scam?

This guy is a scam artists sent me a check for 1600$ more than the item ,I referred the envelope and check to the police and the postal service. He said he was deaf and disabled I can't wait to see if he goes to jail.Real piece of s*£€.

THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH. Just went through the same thing with this dude. Do I need to tall the police and have them watch my house?

Yep glad I knew it sounded fishy however he text me at 430am. I told him cash only and in person only. I'm sure you know what happens next. (He didn't text back)
