Craigslist, Ebay and other online buying/selling scams.

I posted this on Craigslist:
"iPhone 4S Black 16 GB Sprint Brand New, Factory Sealed - $500 (xxxxx)?"

he/she responded with this:
"Okay I am willing to purchase this urgently,Because i just want to get
this for my cousins, I would have love to come get this myself but my
job will not give me the chance to do that.

My form of payment would be via PayPal.if you are papal user kindly get back to me with your
paypal email address to send the money.I will offer you $620 including
shipping cost via USPS Express Mail"

I responded I only deal with cash only and in person only and I never heard from this person again.

Welcome to ScamWarners faxedexcel and congratulations for chasing off the scammer. Yes, that is a typical scammer response. You have a great personal rule for selling on Craigslist.
