What are your thoughts on this?:

"Thanks for the reply,am willing to pay the price and I will be paying you with a certified bank check and after fully clears with you, my movers will come for the pick up and i don't mind giving you extra $50 to hold it in my favor.Text me with your Name & Mailing Address and i will have the payment mailed out immediately. Let me know if this is fine with you Today"

That's exactly how the text came...I just added the quotes.  I replied "Who are your movers?" and "I prefer paypal"...Haven't heard back yet but it has only been ten minutes.  Do you think it's a scam?

SCAM!

Ignore--NO RESPONSE

Forward to spoof at PayPal.com

This a typical scam for your money.

In this specific case it's obvious the scammers didn't even understand the movers are not necessary for a CD.

Thank you DPCreations!  And yeah I guess they forgot to edit the "movers" part out!
