We were trying to sell a few of our furniture pieces on craigslist and just realized we're being scammed.

Was it the: we'll have our movers pick it up and give you a check?

It was the "I'm hearing impaired, I live in a different state, I sent a check that was way over the amount we agreed, please Western Union the rest of the money to this account, I'll have my movers come pick it up" scam.

The sad part of it is that I would have never realized it was a scam - it was only because I got the same email twice that I realized we were being scammed. :|

Yep, I got that when I tried to sell my Wii. I was so excited and then they said that and I was like "Yeah, no." I googled it and realized they do this a lot.

Well, at least you didn't go through with it!

Actually, the person did send us a check but we didn't deposit it yet or anything so that's the good part.

Now we're just stuck with the furniture we don't really need... Grr...

I really can't stand craigslist, it was all over the news here that there was someone on there trying to sell a baby, and the mother of the baby didn't even know about it.

WTF, people suck.

Selling a baby on craigslist? WTF?????

You think you were getting scammed, some asses stole a picture of this woman's baby and said he was going to be put up for adoption on , of course they were going to give those on craigslist first crack, I mean, scum isn't even the right word for them.

Did you catch it in time hon? :( I'm sorry that just sucks.

mediocrechick August 18 2009, 23:10:21 UTC

We caught it just in time because the check came today and we were going to deposit it. :|

It's weird that so many scams are being talked about lately when I've never had issues with craigslist. :( I am sorry!

mediocrechick August 18 2009, 23:12:47 UTC

I hate you...

No but seriously, it was our first time using craigslist too! WTF????

I guess I'm just glad we caught it before something serious happened. *bleh*
