i got an email like that while selling on craigslist but it wasn't as obvious as yours. i was selling a car and he was going to send and extra 3k to ship the car to texas.

Re: haha look at this guy trying to scam me
 

That scam is all over the internet i bet if you look up the ip address origin its not where he says he is

Re: haha look at this guy trying to scam me
 

this is ------- retarded..

craigslist should block all foreigners ip's make it united states ip's only.

ebay should consider blocking all ip's from countries with that many scammers. most notibly nigeria.

Re: haha look at this guy trying to scam me
 

i dont really understand how this kinda of scam works.. why do they send you like $2000 extra in a check, and ask for you to return the rest of the money?

Re: haha look at this guy trying to scam me
 

its a fake check

Re: haha look at this guy trying to scam me
 

international checks take about 2 weeks to clear but most banks let you withdraw the money right away. so by the time they find out it is fake the scammer is 2k richer and you are out that money

Re: haha look at this guy trying to scam me
 

i got that one time, i had the nig nog send the check and when it came i repleid with "haha you got scamed muh fuckah, im stealing your money and not sending ----!! HAHAHAH BITCH YOU GOT OWNED" and a few weeks later i called the bank and the check was already spent, it was rewashed and re written

Re: haha look at this guy trying to scam me
 

Tell the guy youll take his check but you are gonna wait until the check clears to set up the pick up for his ----

Re: haha look at this guy trying to scam me
 

and i bet you'll never hear from him again, i saw forward his emails to the feds.
