I thought so... a Nigerian, who has never been to the US, let alone Ohio.

Same thing happned to me. I was selling my car.he asked for my paypal and said he will make the payment asap. I'm glad I read this!

He's still at, asked me for the same info. Told him I didn't have Paypal and he stopped texting.  Is there a way to report this?

This guy has tried to contact me almost 20 times now!!!!! email and text, He will NOT call or give any information to who he is or where he lives BE CAREFUL PEOPLE!

Had truck for sale on craigslist txt with bad grammar just a scam get a job!

This guy almost got me with the Western union thing I'm glad I googled his Ph#. The email he sends from PayPal is fake the guy is a assembly and should have to work like the rest of us!

I received a txt from this number regarding my vehicle listed on Craigslist. It also said he'd accept the price of my vehicle and he'd arrange for a shipper/mover to pickup. Fortunately, I stated to this person, CASH or CERTIFIED CHECKs ONLY.

Am a woman and am from Ohio

I'm willing to bet you ARE that man.

I have made a transaction with this guy and the transaction was successful i got my money 2,300 and i pay his shippers via western union very easy i wish to meet a man like him again.

I just got the same thing from this number regarding furniture I had for sale.......sent a text back saying I wanted cash, in person, when they picked it up........also that I was wise to his scam.  I received no more texts.  GIANT SCAM.

Just rcvd same text on a vehicle I have for sale on craigs list. Thx so much for prior notes.
Sure is a scam.  Texted back told him to get a real job!!  Thx thx for info everyone!  Debbie

Also received a text concerning private agent for pick up, told him I was investigating his phone number

Stop texting me!!

I also received a number of texts about some tools I had for sale.  He seemed very eager to get my paypal information so he could transfer more money than I was asking for the items to cover freight and that I was to wire $500 to Western Union to pay the shipping agent.  When I told him that I would prefer for him to arrange shipping the messages stopped.

i have the same thing. guys wants to buy my car sight unseen and send someone to get it. wants my paypal email address.

Same thing asking to buy our truck and asking for paypal email address - sad.  Better if they earned an HONEST dollar.

Same thing, these guys are scam artists! ! !  beware

Received a text from this number regarding a vehicle I had for sale, again same thing, couldnt call due to his job, wanted to send a driver to pick up, but wanted my paypal info. when I indicated only cash would work, texts stopped.

I received several text messages from this number, asking about some expensive items I had for sale.  After several rounds of text messages, the sender said 'due to his job, he couldn't pick the items up but he would send a check with someone to get the items'.  It sounded like a scam from the start.  The caller also used extremely poor grammar.
