Same here. 646 area code claiming himself to be a Bell canada sales rep. And offer me a discount on my next bill. Then I received a call from local area code and the lady told me that she is from fraud department of Bell and don't fall for these 646call as they r frauds, they pay your monthly bill by stollen credit cards and then ask for some money in exchange through western union. So when u conf. With Bell that my bill is really paid, you agree to pay them. After few months those paid amounts on ur phone bills again been added to ur acc. As those were paid by stolen c.c

Received 2 text messages from 646 580 4978 and 323 425 9946 re an ad for an I phone . I started by answering one which began with 'is this item still available?' This led to them saying they wanted to send me the money and have me ship iphone to Nigeria. I asked where they were and they said Mississipi. It got more and more vague and suspicious. But I was sucked in enough to continue asking questions. I asked how are you going to make the payment, the response was Western Union. I finally asked how I could know if they are legit and they said ' oh, i believe in faith' Suddenly it also seemed familiar because i had responded to the other ad and the wording was all either the same or similar. Also this number wanted me to ship the iphone only to a son, not a husband. Finally I told them both to F****** off.
Hopes this saves some grief.

I just got a text from 646-912-8693 regarding my ad. They offered me $150 more than my selling price. I thought it was suspicious so I googled the number and found this thread. Someone else also listed the same number too, so they're definitely scammers. They asked me to send more pictures of the item and email the to kennethchiodi400@gmail.com.

answered my add by text way up in canada. I figured it was a scam. I recommend people be very careful.

I received a text message from this number as well, he wouldn't say where he was from and would only pay by bank transfer, I could immediately tell that it was a scam

Got a message from 646-801-0665 to buy my iphone5. Wants me to ship & he will pay by PayPal. Even though i said "cash only, in person". These 646 area codes are all scams. Report them all to Kijiji fraud too, and let the scammer know you are reporting.

I just put up my canon camera on kijiji and I got 10 emails throughout the night. same stuff you guys are talking about. It really sucks because I enjoy selling from kijiji.

A guy just texted me that he wanted my watch off Kijiji and would pay 300 for it, even though I was selling for 120. To be sent to his wife on an African trip. HAH! I thought it was suspicious, so I googled the number and all you guys had the same thing. Lets just say he will not be texting me ever again. He gave me this address:
Number 24 Elite Road
Abeokuta
Ogun State
Nigeria
Postal Code: 234039

Not the same number but similar 646-543-0764, has replied to my Kijiji ad for an out of date X-box advertised for $35, person is offering me $170 for the item and wants it shipped to Africa for a relative, consistantly asking for my paypal account to transfer funds "immidiatly".... Idiot!! Send the 170 to Africa and can get a brand new x-box. The unit I'm selling has no games or controllers??? SCAM!!!!!!

idiot trying to buy something from me listed on clist. wants to use paypal. please shut this crimminals phone service down!!!
| Pete 2012-04-30 03:33:12 SMS |
I got a text (from a Blackberry) and was told to email jessicjoel;yahoo (no typos - I typed the address exactly as they sent it to me) directly with asking price and current condition. I emailed before I realized it was a 646 area code. I live in Canada. Of course, it is a scam; who in New York wants to buy a sofa from Canada sight unseen?
I sent it to jessicjoel@yahoo.ca. Waiting to see if it gets sent back as being undeliverable.
Next time someone asks you to send info so their 'shipping agent' can pick up the item and they want to do a paypal transfer, send this reply:
"I have a much easier way to complete this transaction. How about you send me cash ($1,050 including shipping and handling - no cheques, money orders etc.) and then I will contact MY shipping company and send you the sofa. Don't forget to include an extra $200 for shipping and handling. What is your mailing address, credit card number, chequing account number, SIN number, mother's maiden name, your full name, your birthplace and your date of birth. That would be great...thanks!"
Even the most stunned scammer would get the idea that you are onto them. Good luck out there to you all...

Wants me to pay shipper fees to send him my couch set I have for sale. Sent money to pay pal that was never there then threatened legal action against me.
| Dustin 2012-04-16 16:19:02 Unknown |
He will never call you, only text you. He texted me about my ad about my car for sale. Wanted me to ship the car, and then pay for it after I had shipped it. Dont bother wasting your time with this.
