    I have been contacted the exact same for items i placed ads for on Craigs List too. They are Scammers who offer to puchase the item listed and will send an agent or someone to pick up the item after you receive a check for it. the check then is made out to be alot more money than the item you listed for sale. They then say they made a mistake of the amount and request you send to them the overpayment amount by WIRE. Nobody would purchase an item without seeing it first and nobody has another person pick it up. These Scammers tell you to take the item off your add too. They often disrcibe themselves as being very honest

    Caller ID showed "California 909-366-4126"  
    I answered because I thought it was my cousin from CA, calling, concerning a family member.   Otherwise, I would not have answered.  I said "hello" silence on other end so I hung up.  Thanks for the info concerning area code 909.  I won't answer ever again.

    Have gotten a few.  The last from 909-256-8207  with a call back to 888-600-3326.  Telling me a certified package was being delivered to my address.  Funny thing is they called a VOIP number listed in Deer Park NY and I live in Central Mexico.  Good luck with that.
