They send you a very real looking check for way over the amount you were asking for the item and ask you to send them some of the money back . Your bank taks 2 weeks to tell you that the check is stollen or a forgery by then the scamers have your money. dont deal with any one that wont talk to you on the phone and even then it could be a scam

OBAMA SUCKS HE WILL GIVE THIS WHOLE COUNTRY AWAY. ANYBODY THAT SUPPORTS THIS GUY IS AN IDIOT

another thing I tracked this number down by the prefix and its not even in this country. Craigslist wont even try to put a stop to this and it is all over their site everytime anyone list an item or vehicle for sale we have to deal with this crap. Clist SUCKS Use Ebay its free and scam free and very easy.and they do care about their listers.I cannot tell you how many times I have been a target of scammers on craigslist. It will happen everytime I list something. They are using the netbots and just fishing and man it must be working .

What they do is send you a check that is way more than what you are asking for the item and say that their secretary made the mistake and when you deposit the very real looking check would you send them the difference. It will take the bank at least 3 days sometimes 2 weeks to figure out the check is a stolen or fake company check. by then you have already sent real money to the scammer. These guys are always on a mission or on a ship. some times they sell cars at very low prices and want you to send a deposit on the car and they promise to ship the car to you at no charge since they are in the military they can ship it free. Look if they cant talk to you on the phone at least ,DONT DEAL WITH THEM

They are using 571-451-0129 and 6514044353 two different names DR. DRAY & Ana Josh

Getting text from 6514044353 wanting to send check to me and buy my item on Cl

They been textn me asking to buy my item from Cl wanting to send check something's going on with this number!

Rcvd an SMS (text) message from this number in response to an item for sale on CL. Offered to send a "cashiers check" - not sure if I am going to ignore this, or try to scam-the-scammer...
Tried to call the number from a throw-away number - no answer.

I also had something for sale and iv been selling several things on craigslist and i got two people that have said they will send check blahblah ...how do they scam u tho does anyone no? Both the numbers were way out of state How can they scam u with just an address for check

My bf is trying to sell a bow and this person texted to buy it saying they'll send a check. But that they could not talk because they're on a mission and for security reasons. I looked up the number and people have been scammed by this person!
