DO NOT TRUST THESE PEOPLE>>>  I put up a listing on Facebook market place and was contacted from jhnmrjohn@gmail.com who claimed their name was lillian smith. said they were located in alabama, had washington phone number and an offshore banking account/client. Not to mention the dramatic change in grammar from American to British and the type o's... I have not received the check yet(yes i did give them my info) but i plan on taking it to my bank so they can maybe decipher its origin.

I have received the same type of emails from this person (Lizzy Simpson) through a posting on facebook. I haven't received the check yet, but I don't know what to do once I do.

All of the messages from this person that called there self Lillian Smith
Please let me know if there is anything at all that we can do to stop these people .. I have all the proff that they were trying to scam me everything emails .. the check and when they send it there was no return address ...

I made a complaint to Facebook.

Lizzy Simpson [lizzysimpson4422@gmail.com]

What was the persons name? How did you fair out were you jipped? I am going through the same kind of deal right now selling something online, but the person said that they will pick it up, and blah blah

Have you found out who this is yet?  I recently sold something online and was contacted  by e-mail from someone who wanted to buy it.  This is the number they gave me to contact them but I haven't called them yet.  I decided to google this phone number and found your message which causes me a bit of concern (I don't want to get scammed).  If you have any more information it would be much appreciated

doesnt stop calling
