Too skeptical of buyers on craigslist....

I wouldn't give them your address at all.
I would give them a work address, and then when you get the "checques" forward them and all information to the police and the IC3...

yeah, kind of what i was thinking.

Too everyone else... if i were to disregard my common sense, i would have already sent my address and such. Thanks for the replies.

I usually mess with the scammers just out of principle. Last time I told them to send the check to a fake address that I just made up c/o Hugh Jass. They over nighted the check via fedex (got an email with a tracking number and everything). A couple of days goes by and I said I never got it...so I had them over night a second check...hehehe. Next I told him I cashed it and wasn't going to give him the product. He then said he was going to alert the authorities...and within a few hours, I get this fake *** email supposedly from the FBI...but get this...the email address was fbi_deptmentofjustice@gmail.com...I mean come on a gmail account from the FBI. I had a good laugh...and the scammer was out the amount it took him to overnight 2 checks.
