Craiglist's scams

I have listed several items on craigslist and have got some obvious scams and we have discussed several of them before.. but since i have a couple of big ticket items, they have gotten better..

So i am going to start listing them when they come in


------------------------------SCAM-------------------------------------------------
1.
I am interested, can i trust you,i'm a navy captain working on ship
and I'm offering additional $100 to your final price for you to keep
it off from other offer.could you please provide me with recent
pictures of this item so i can see the condition before we proceed and
Also,i'll be paying you from my paypal account, so if you are still
okay in selling it off to me, kindly get back to me with your name and
paypal email ID so i can send the money as soon as i have your paypal
info. so i can make the payment asap for the item and if you don't
have paypal account yet, it is very easy to set up, go to
http://www.paypal.com and get it set up.. looking forward to your
response.

Regards.

Brett

I noticed your listing and decided to ask you something important. I am in a relationship and caught my partner cheating on me so I want to get back! My friend said cl would be the best place to find somebody who I can hook up with for one time only so thought the heck, I would email someone I thought sounded hot in the ad and came across yours! You seem real and fun so would you be maybe interested in chatting online first to see if we're compatible? To prove to you that I am real, I uploaded all of my pics, cell #, and a special note for you only under my private profile page. Can you text me today if you think I am hot? This way I can weed out bots and scammers as I'm tired of them! I bet you'll be astonished to see who I am! :)

tnzoom,

Is your product still around? Umm...this might be random but you sound hot and spicy in your listing. Do you want to get coffee sometimes? I promise I'm not a weirdo, just feeling lonely. If you're interested, meet me on my private dating profile (it's like facebook for adults), there's no cost to join! My pics and my phone # are all on there so get in touch with me. There are too many liars on here so if you're legit text me and maybe we can meet to become buddies and maybe more? You never know! Alright, I won't bother you again! You'll be amazed to see what I look like! :)

You have a Harley for sale and those are the responses????

My daughter's supervisor hooked up with an asshole last week from that site. They met at an Applebees here in Louisville. Thought that would be safe. WRONG. He spiked her drink. Drove them to a Motel, raped, beat the out of her, tied a belt around her neck and left after he thought she was dead. I told my daughter to tell her that I have lots of friends on here that would come from out of the wood work, if she finds out who he is.

"Pardon me, is your thing still on sale? I saved cash completely ready. And umm, I saw your post and swallowed pride to give this a shot. I want to hang out tomorrow after work around 2pm ish so let's have dinner. My cell # is 698-95XX (last 2 digits are concealed) so text me. Can you send me your pictures to my cell so I know you are real and I will reply back with mine too. I even uploaded a video for you on my profile, are you interested? I promise Im not a weirdo just want to become friends and maybe more!"

I noticed your post and wanted to ask you something critical. I am in a relationship and caught my partner cheating on me so I decided to get even! My friend said cl would be the best place to find someone closeby who I can hook up with for one time only so thought the heck, I would email someone I thought sounded attractive in the ad and came across yours! You seem real and pleasant so would you be maybe interested in chatting online first to see if we're compatible? To prove to you that I am real, I uploaded all of my photos, phone #, and a special note for you only under my private profile page. Can you call me today if you think I am hot? This way I can weed out bots and scammers as I'm fed up with them! I bet you'll be pleased to see who I am! :)

My animal magnetism elicits the same response again

Damn man!

OMG is it really you? It's a small world, I recgonized your writing form in your cl ad and made the decision to email you glad that your email is still the same. I used to have a giant crush on you awhile ago but sadly you dated my friend instead. Not to be invasive but I heard you were great in bed so I've always wanted to experience that. Hey, do you mind chatting with me on my private profile page? It's secure and discreet on there so it'll be a great way for us to talk. My private photos and cell # are on there also so you can see who I am. The moment you sign on, I'll message you first. I can't wait to hear from you!!! :)

lazy what ?????
i had 3 more of the my partner cheating, i hate chain letters.

Sorry for the late to get back to you..I really appreciate your
response to my earlier mail as i am highly interested in it...I will
like to buy this item so pls do withdraw the advert from Craigslist.
I will like to know the best price for it,Present Condition and the
reason for selling it.
I will also like you to know that i will be paying by check due to
the fact that i will not be able to meet up with the cash and local
pick up.I will have my mover to come for the inspectation and pickup
as soon after the check has cleared and cashed..I will need you to
provide me with the following information to facilitate the mailing of
the check if that works for you.

1.Your full name
2.Your mailing address be it residential or office address.
3.Your phone number

This is getting good. You should send them to a buds house.

Tell them that you don't have the unit here with you because you travel with work. Then go on to tell them to have their move contact your mover after their bank talks to your bank and have then send you their name, bank routing info etc...

Sometimes I mess with the spammers until they give up - use the same stupid on them - can be quite entertaining.

Oh and tell them you can't take checks since you don't have a checking account

Did you take a pic of the Harley with you sitting on it naked or what?

I have never got anything like that so far.

Howdy, is the item still available? I need more details on it please. I've been wanting to find something identical for quite a while so uncertain if it's the one. I added a video of what I'm desiring to buy along with my personal information so can you double check if they are the same thing or not?

It would be bad to meet you in person and then find out they are entirely different. By the way, I ONLY deal with adults so ignore me if you are a a young minor trying to scam me, I'll not fall for that. You do have to sign up to see the video to confirm you're real and legal of age but don't worry, there's no cost to join. Anyways, message me on there so we can proceed. Thanks!

Maybe you need to rewrite your ad along the lines of: Please only contact me if you are not a scammer or soliciting me for sex - lol

However, there is a high entertainment value

Hey Gimpy! I'm thinking beat down and buried up to his neck in the mountains smeared in honey. Here Bear! I hope she is alright. Craigslist is obviouse the same everywere. thats why i do not post anything on there. I do read the ads for a good laugh sometimes.
