i think i already know the answer but, want to hear what you think.
here's my craigslist ad; https://sfbay.craigslist.org/sby/cto/d/san-...7512888762.html here's 2 emails from the wanna be buyer; Hi, I saw the ad on craigslist. I am interested in it. Where are you located? I never use cl emails, come back to this <bruce.cromwell.99@gmail.com>,thank you & Kristina Hunt <kristinahu48@gmail.com> To: paul taylor <xxxxxx@att.net> Thanks for returning my message. I'm currently not in town for now, so I won't be able to meet with you due to my work frame and also we are very busy at this time preparing for our daughter's wedding but I'm okay with the price and condition as shown on the advert. I'll proceed in issuing a cashier's check to you and when you receive the payment and it clears your bank, I will make arrangements for the pick up. I will also add an additional $50 to hold it down for me. So get back to me with the details below to mail the check out to you asap.. Name to be on the payment ........... Address to mail the check to ........ City, state and Zip code ............NOT P.O BOX Final Asking price................... Phone number to text you on .. what's the jig here? pfishing for contact info? check's gonna bounce? |

Someone sent me a fake cashiers check. I took it to the bank and they even said it looked pretty good.
