  • new scam?

    Apparantly a guy is responding to my listing by "text from cpu" when he texs me, his email show up where his phone number would be. He has asked for pics, the bottom dollar, and my paypal info aka my email. He seems eager to send money right away and the car is "for his sister" I'm not asking so much as to if this is a scam or not but am asking what is the angle of the scam? Either way, he can paypal all he wants but I will only do a title tranfer in person and some cases at a bank/notary. Tia

                No one on craigslist dares put their number in fear that they might actually sell something

                    If money actually gets transferred through paypal.....then you are good.

                    He'll probably just send you a bogus check.

                        That's why I was asking what his angle was. To me , its obvious its a scam with how eager he was to send money. The only thing I cn think of is he is going to come up with some bs as to why he can't paypal and then flip the script to try to send a bogus check

                          Look at when you reply to the email, its not an att adres, All cell phones have emails attached to them its the number and like @atttext.net . Its probably a gmail adress he's sending from. I got a email on some wheels im selling recently with same thing. My response was" what part of nigeria do you hale from" and got no response.
