Craigs List Scammer

Never trust this e-mail address.
It is a scammer…
jonh1224@yahoo.com

There ya go.

He decided to tell me he was interested in my car, but asked questions that were already answered in the ad, and he wanted pictures, which were already in the ad.

Be careful when selling items online…even communicating.

Here was his e-mail to me:

Good Day ,
Thanks very much for your response, the reason I am sending you this email is to
make final reconfirmation of the car which goes for $4000.00 and it’s ok by
me,also to let you know that payment will be by certified cashier’s check In
view of this I need you to email me any information that may be required to send
the payment as I do not want to send the check or money order to a wrong
location lest they get into the wrong hands.Regarding the shipping, I have a
freight company that takes care of the pickup of my consignments for me and ship
to my destination , you should’nt get worried about shipping, the company will
send down a representative to arrange the sales documentation and the pick up
from your end for onward transfer to my destination. I also want to alert you on
the fact that you will be receiving my cashier’s check, which will cover the
money for the pickup (pickup and shipping to the final destination) as
well as the money to be paid to the company that will take care of the pickup
and the documentation with you. So please, as soon as you receive the payment,
go and cash it immediately, deduct the money that accrues to you, and send the
balance to the Head Office of the company that handles the shipment .I will give
you the details of the company that will be shipping the car as soon as we seal
this deal.Once the money is received by the agent ,the shipping agent will
contact you immediately to arrange the documentation as well as the pick up
immediately.So in view of the above, here are some of the details I will need
for final issuance of the cashier’s check to you.
(1) Full Name
(2) Mailing address, no p.o.box please
(3) your direct telephone number both home and cell.?
{4} accept my offer
{5}Final asking price
Once you get back to me with all the above, the check will be issued out
immediately by my business associate and it will
be sent to you .Hope to hear from you immediately.Looking forward to your swift
response.
Regards,
Davis.

I’m guessing this was a scamming template he/she sends out to all victims, especially since he/she never refers to me by my frist name or mentions the car;s specifis specifications or even model in his emails.

He’s a creeper.
