Hello
The description and condition of item is excellent and
greatly appreciated by me
I am ready to make instant purchase.My mode of payment would be in
CASHIER,S CHECK, i will make arrangement for a local pick up as soon
as you receive the check.
I really wish to be at your location to view the item,but it
is not necessary since i would not be chanced to come and view the
item due to the nature of my job.
Concerning the pick up, i would arrange for that after you
have received the payment and it clears your account,where my shipper
will come to your location for the pick up. Please get back to me with
your contact informations so that i can proceed with the mailing of
the payment immediately if you are selling to me. The adress of the acount that sent me this email was ongburo12@gmail.com and the only kind of name I have for this person is Kate.

Names....

Tel phone Nos......

Note that the payment will be shipped to your address via FED-EX
NEXT DAY AIR SERVICE and I will like you to know that you will not be
responsible for shipping i will have my mover to come over as soon as
you have cashed the check....

Thanks.

I can not make or receive calls am deaf and dumb.







This is not the whole email but after saying that they sent a cashiers check to me they never gave me any personal information. Could someone tell me how bad of a scam this is or if it's not one at all?

Every so often, I receive a call from this number.  Usually, there was silence, however, the last time and today, a foreigner began to speak, but not in any language I understand.  So I told the foreigner to stop calling, as if he would do so.

cause am very busy man (Us Marine).Concerning the pick up, i will

This guy tried to pull the same scam on me. He first sent me an email as John Patel ennyisgood2@gmail.com and asked for pics even though I already had them on my post. Then he replied with      historiadayo9@gmail.com as John Cedric and asked for all of my information for a cashiers check he would use to pay me even though I specifically asked for cash. Good thing I had another buyer and sold the item.

I too almost bought into this scam.  Something sounded to fishy, so I decided to Google his email address that brought me to this site.   He was looking to do the same, purchase something I had up for sale on craigslist and pay me more than the actual amount.  That when the alarm went off in my head, that something is not right here.  His email reads as follows:

Thanks for your trust and the information, i want you to faithful
> with me concerning the transaction but i will like to tell you that
> the payment will be sent to you by my secretary and i want you to
> remove it from the computer because i have never buy on the computer

I am glad to see posts like this out there to alert people that something just is not right.  Thank you!

after receiving a similar email from the same "individual", I smelled a bad egg, too.  Now, he's followed up with the same email, even tho I pulled the listing immediately following the original (having deemed it a scam--just by the grammar alone!). I will be contacting our local law enforcement in the morning.
Here is "his" email:

Subject: WHY THE DELAY??

Hello
      Hope you do not want to put yourself into trouble,because you
dont know the kind of person you are dealing with,i will not allow you
to rip me off my money,the shipping company was supposed to be at your
location yesterday for the pick up but you never got back to me with
the western union information of the remaining funds with you.
  Because i told you to make sure when you get the check to take out
your funds for the items am purchasing from you plus $50 extra and
forward the remaining balance to my shipper that will come to your
location for pick up
 Note....
1.you can never go away with my money whch i suffered for.
2.you do not even know the kind of person you are dealing with.
3.i have all our conversaton saved.

i will be looking to read from you in the next 24hours.
 Thanks.

Thanks for getting back to me, and am okay with the price and the
condition and i will like to make an outright purchase of this
particular item immediately because i noticed that you are serious
seller, i anticipate that a cashier check or certified check will be
sent to you via express mail or ups as the mode of payment, concerning
the pick up, i will be responsible for that, where my mover will come
for the pick up at your location upon your confirmation of receiving
the payment and i want you to remove this item from the ad. So i will
send the payment which will include the pick up charges in which you
will make payable to the mover immediately you receive the payment to
avoid the delay. Also i have other packages they will be picking for
me around your location which i will like the to pick up with your
item, would really love to come for the viewing but due to my work
frame and the family issue for the year that might not be possible and
i will like you to provide the information below so that the payment
will be done as soon as possible:-

1.......full name
2.......full home address
3......City, State & zip code
4......tel#

As soon as this is provided i will let you know when payment is mailed
out and i will update you on when you will receive the payment, and
give you instructions on what to do..I hope we handle this in good
faith...

Thanks while waiting to hear from you

--
I will like to see more of pics and know the last price if still
available. Thanks
--------------------------------------------------------------------

I was very happy at first but then i realize this guy never even mention the product that he wants to buy. so i googled this whole reply and his email and i got to this page. HAH this dumbass use the same template to fraud people.

It's so fishy that he said "I hope we handle this in good
faith..." HAH! i will never fall for that!
