Got this reply to my Criagslist ad for my Roper....what you think?.....

"Okay plz get back to me with your name and address please no P O Box
so that i will send you a CASHIER CHECK and negotiations with a
shipper to come and pick it up from you..Thx alot and God bless you.

Best Regards."

I emailed back to contact a shipper, and send him the check....He can cash it and bring me cash..........Think I will hear back from him?....lol

not sure poncho how the scum does it that way but I know how they do it if you ship something,they have it diverted in mid shipment to a address and then are gone.It's amazing how much time they put into these scams,you know they are smart enough to make honest money if they would try it's down right amazing.My rule on craigslist is if I sell something you have to come pick it up and have cash in hand no exceptions of any kind.The scammers have made it this way...KW
