I googled the phone number and found the scamedex.com site had the same number listed with the same individual utilizing emails. It was verbatum to the text I received the same day I posted furniture for sale on Craigslist.(15 Jul 2013) I am so glad I found this site...He hadn\'t mentioned the overpayment yet....I texted back I take cash only....so far haven\'t heard back...
Follow Ups/Extra Information. Most recent is listed first.
Regarding a baby crib I posted on craigslist, I received this message: "(1/2)I came across this (Crib and Custom Cowboy Bedding - $190) on craigslist and I will like to know if it is still available for sale. Please more pics of any(2/2)kind will do if you have them.Thanks." I then responded "Yes it is still available. There are 5 pics on the ad. Is there anything in particular you would like to see a photo of?" The next day I received this message: "(1/3)Thanks for getting back with me.I am okay with the price.....I would have loved to come and see it in your house but my schedule will not permit me I'm a (2/3)busy kind of person. We can proceed with payment arrangements and pick up. I will be making the payment with cashiers check or certified check, so I will (3/3)need your full name that will be on the check and your full address where you can easily receive the package via courier and I will arrange for the pickup". I finalized the conversation with "Ok great! We got a deal! Make the check out to Dick Gazinya 4569 Fuckoff Ln. Austin, Tx 78666. Nice doin bizness wit ya!" I assume I will not here back from this a-hole.

Since you’re here …
we have a small favour to ask. More people are visting Scamdex and Scamalot than ever but advertising revenues are falling fast and we have no 'product' to sell. And unlike many informational websites, we haven’t put up a paywall or membership barrier – we want to keep our site as open as we can. So you can see why we need to ask for your help. Scamdex/Scamalot websites takes a lot of time, money and hard work to keep running. We do this because we hate to see our fellow humans getting scammed out of their hard-earned money by low-lives.
