I am selling RIMS on CRAIGSLIST watch for SCAMs

[davirene]

Ok so I am being cautious because I have had some friends get scammed.

I also was recently looking at a 2005 EVO for $6500 from an AIRFORCE GUY in Alaska on craigslist. That turned out to be a big scam...

So now I posted my rims for sale on here and on craigslist. Well I had 2 different guys respond wanting to pay full amount and arrange there own shipping and boxing??? The first guy wont give me his number or tell me where he is at? I never sent him any pics? NO CELL #?

FIRST offer
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Hello Again,

Yes, I got the pics. I will be paying $600 for the Rims and the payment is going to go through PayPal (www.paypal.com) as i wont be opportuned to pay for it in cash so if you are interested in selling this to me please get back with the following..

Your name:
PayPal email address:
Full Address:

So i can make the payment, since I've know the condition. A shipping Company will come over and pick it up after payment clears as i have been dealing with them for years especially when i am not there to do collection myself. So don't bother about doing any Shipping. And please I'm dealing with trust..so as soon as you get payment you should give a specific convenient time for you for the collection to take place without hassles, as i wont want that..
Cheers.

Allan Eva.

Now this second guy really ticked me off because he is claiming to be a DEAF US MARINE so he wont give me his number. Once again no number or location. His email has 2 different names. Carl hoilman" <[email protected] and his english really sucks.

Thanks you for the response according to the description,am okay with
the price and the condition pasted on cl. I am ready to make instant
purchase.My mode of payment would be in CERTIFIED CHECK and i will
arrange for a local pick up as soon as you get the check, because that
is the only inconvenient means for me and due to my work frame i can
not be able to get there and i promise everything will go smoothly.I
really wish to be there to check out the item but i don't have chance
cause am very busy person (US MARINE). Concerning the pick up, i will
arrange for it after you receive the payment and it clears... Pls get
back to me with below info so that i can proceed with the payment
immediately if you are selling to me.

Name:
Address: Not P.O.BOX
City:
State :ostal Code:
Phone
Phone Number: That i can send text


And as soon as this is provided, the payment will be overnight to you
and i will let you know when its mailed out. Thanks and i hope we
handle this in good faith while waiting to hear from you. i will add
an additional $30 so that you can hold it for me till the check reach
you.
Best Regard
