Thread: Craigslist scammers

Tweet

I was hoping Craigslist would be reasonably free of scammers. I have a couple of items on the local Albany, NY version and both have had scam hits. One I thought was legit until I just got a response back - no punctuation, poor grammar and poor use of English, no capitalization - and want to pay me extra to hold the items and pay via a certified check, BINGO. Generally the same thing for the other. Dammit, and I thought I could finally sell some odds and ends without paying the Ebay fees.

Thank goodness for my Earthlink anonymous email addresses I use for these listings since they never hit my inbox unless I request it via a couple of mouse clicks
