well i just posted something on craigslist to see if it would sell.This smells like a scam. Could you guys help me out to see if it sounds legit?

Hello Seller,

My name is John Blader,I have a client who is interested in buying your item,he informed me that the payment will be remmited via a cashiers check America postal money order.Is the price listed firm?In order to conclude the deal as soon as possible,the cashiers check that will be sent to you will include the money for the sales of your item and the shippers fees for organising a home pick up service.You do not need to worry as my shipping company will come to pick the item up from your base for shipment. What I want to clarify is that will you be able to send the shipping charges to the shipping agent in U.S through western union money transfer method as soon as you get and cash the check and you deduct the money for the sales of your item?If you agree to assist in this capacity kindly send your full name,address and your contact phone number.

I want you to email me the firm price for the item.

nope not safe

yeah, kinda smelled fishy.

Sounds fishy to me. That is too much extra BS to be dealing with. If the buyer really wants the item, he will play by your rules. All this unnecessary mumbo jumbo worries me.

THE GUY IS TRYING TO SCAM YOU! The check or money order is fake and it will be for more than you're asking for. I'll try to find the two fake money orders that got last September from so a$$hole who was trying to buy some computers from my ex wife.
