Craigslist SCAM.

Craigslist scam really TICKS me off! I posted about 6 ads 2 weeks ago, and 90% of the responses I have received have just been [attempted] scams. I love craigslist, because it really works, but its such a shame to have to fight off scam with absolutely everything you do. 

Beware of responses like this, as I have received:

Hello ,

Thanks for your quick response, I am quite satisfied with the

condition of the item and price.Am very much interested in buying the

item from you and I would like to make an outright purchase

immediately so I will advice that you withdraw the advert from the

web. I don't mind adding $50 for you to do that. I will be paying with

a certified bank check.

Furthermore my mover will be coming over for the pick up as I

might not be available to come for the pick up myself but am OK with

the information from the ad. I will need the following information

details to make payment arrangement done asap.

1,Your full name to be on the Payment.

2,Your mailing address including zip code.

3,Your phone number both land and mobile.

I will be awaiting your response which should entail these information.

Best.

Hello ,

How was your day i will like you to know i saw the

picture of your good on the ads and i am very okay by it .

I will like to know if you still have it available for

sale . Hope to hear from you soon .

Regards

I have an idea: I'm going to start a scam business, only I'll be smart about it and actually write in good, literate English. I could make millions.

I'll pitch the idea to Drew, just in case we get desperate =)
