In Reply to: Scam attempt on Craigslist posted by 2-ears on October 22, 2020 at 17:31:50:
A few years ago I posted a digital cable on US Audio Mart for $85. I got a few inquiries, but one guy supposedly in Texas wrote and said he needed an S/PDIF cable. He told me he didn't have a PayPal account, but could send me a money order. I agreed and a couple of days later I received a FedEx envelope with a return address from a local suburb here in Florida with the return addressee being an attorney. When I opened it up, it was a "payroll" check for over $1850. Upon close examination, it was clear the check came off of a printer. He claimed he wanted to get it fast and I could just cash the check and send him the difference when I shipped the cable. I took it to my local police station where they called FedEx to find out it came from St. Louis! US Audio caught up with him and removed or banned him. End of story is that I later sold the cable to a legit buyer using PayPal. Now, if anybody reading this really and truly is so generous to pay me over 20 times my asking price for anything I post, we just might, maybe, be able to cut a deal...
