Sara S | Is this a scam response to my ad? |
I am trying to sell my dishwasher through Craigslist. A week or so ago I got a scam response to my ad (it was VERY obvious that it was a scam). Now yesterday, I got an e-mail asking if it was still available. I replied that it is and this is the response that I got this morning:
"Sounds Good,
I want to purchase the item today and pay you via Electronic Cashier Check drawn from my Bank account it is a real cashiers check after you print it. The check will be sent to you immediately via email all you need to do is purchase a Business check paper at any Office depot or stationary store to print the check on and immediately when you print the check proceed to your Bank to deposit or Cash it,the Business check paper cost $20 only but i will offer you $50 to purchase the Business check paper to print the check.The item will be picked up from you by my Company shipper so you don't have to worry about shipment of the item also I will wait for you to confirm and clear the check before the shipper come to pickup the item from you actually I should have handled this myself but i am not available to do that now i am currently away for my Company seminar that is why i want you to do this and i will pay you $50 to purchase the Business check paper to print the check.This is the fastest and best method of payment because it is instant once you purchase Business check paper all this process of printing and cashing of the E-check can be done within 2 hours.
Thanks"
Is this a scam? I guess it kinda sounds like it to me but the fact that he said that he'd be willing to wait until it cleared really threw me off. I have never heard of an electronic cashiers check.
What do you think? |

Yes, it's a scam. When somebody takes the time to give you detailed instructions on how to receive payment (everybody knows how to cash a check), then you can bet the farm it is a scam. The same thing happened when I was looking for a roommate on Craigslist. Next time put in the tag "out-of-country responses will be ignored."
A legitimate response to your ad would have been simple: "I am interested in your dishwasher. Is it an energy saver? How much water does it use?" The response you questioned was only concerned with payment, absolutely no questions about the item itself. |

you know all of that is too complicated ? I wouldn't even bother with it...scam or no scam. I mean it's not like your dealing with 1,000's of dollars. Plus you should always go with your gut feelings. Tell him thanks but no thanks. |

My saying is..
Sounds too good to be true?
Then it probably is. |

Never, ever heard of this - I'd be very wary. If you don't trust it, don't sell this person your dishwasher. Rather dubious, but I'm not sure what's in it for him.
Just don't do it... |

This is a scam! Do not do this! You will be charged for all $$ and you could be charged criminally. Report this to Craigslist and to your local police NOW!!!!!!!!!! |

THIS IS ANOTHER NIGERIAN -TYPE MONEY SCAM.
avoid. |

read it carefully - if you send them the $20 dollars to buy the check, and you'll never hear from them again.
you have two options, ignore it, or take it to the police and report potential fraudster. I'd do the latter |
