SCAM buyer reply’s with this question:

Thank You
>Then, you reply w/ yes, I do, and the scammer then replies with this:
Thank you for getting back with me
I’m very interested in this but before I buy it I need to know if its
the same one I’m looking for because I can’t afford another mistake
Please check out this video here I uploaded
PLAY VIDEO
If its the same one I will be there today to buy it

> Then you start to wonder why in the world someone sends a link to a video when they are trying to buy something, so you smell a scam and post on this webpage.
1. Never give out info on the internet for any reason until you are 100% confident it is safe to do so.
2. Don’t trust [email protected], whoever the scammer is.

I received the same thing and clicked on the link, unfortunately, before I thought about it. A video website came up but nothing happened because it said I need to download their program (which I didn’t). Is there a virus linked and does it only effect you if the video runs? I’m worried that either I have a virus or they can obtain personal information. Does anyone know??
I received the same email, but from [email protected]
SCAM
I got the same email from [email protected]. Damn scammers….I was so happy someone was interested. @#$@#$
I got the same email from [email protected]. The tip off for me was I am selling a futon mattress…why would you need a video for a mattress. Silly scammers.
i got the same mailing from [email protected] Dang and I was hoping to sell my stuff too… 8( All they have is my bucket bin email address thankfully. sometimes it pays to be an over zealous security freak…
I got the same email from [email protected].
I got the same from
[email protected];
i got the same email from [email protected]. im selling my Dsi black. why would u need a video.
I got the same message. At first I thought it was legit since I was selling a DVD workout series, but then I got another one for a headboard I’m selling -saying the exact thing. I clicked on the link (from the first email), but didn’t download software to make it run. I did, however, include my home and cell phone numbers in the reply. I hope that doesn’t mean they have information that could be harmful. Got mine from [email protected] and [email protected]
i got 2 emails stating the same thing from [email protected] and [email protected] and i was selling collector barbie dolls. i got my hopes up for nothing. stupid scammers.

I believe this is a cell phone Phishing Scam. If you down load the FLV player
it repeatedly ask for your cell phone number. Then you will find a $9.95 charge
on your next cell phone bill.
I have gotten several of these scam replies from all of my Craiglist postings. It’s unfortunate that Craigslist.org will not recognize this problem and take action. It won’t take long before the public stops using Craigslist because this problem has become rampant.
