Craigslist Phishing Scam

[iceboxbass]

I ran into what I believe to be a Craigslist scam just this week. Read the following from my email;

I have made the payment now, im sure you must have received the payment notification message from PayPal regarding the payment. The pick up company wanted $300 for the pick up and delivery,$50 for western charges, so i have included it in the payment i made. I have also informed the pick up company, im sure they will contact you regarding the details you will used to send the money. Please make sure you send the money to them on time and arrange pick up time and date.

Thanks and hope to hear back from you asap.

if it looks like a scam, smell like a scam, and tastes like a scam.....    ITS A SCAM..

easy enough to spot.. look at the first line.. my guess,, it nigerian scam dirt bag..

plus i am guess you have not sold a pick up truck to any one..

I have made the payment now, im sure you must have received the payment

Don't worry, I didn't fall for this scammer no way! I didn't fall off the turnip truck yesterday. I only reported this to Craigslist so they and possibly others would be aware of this going around. Thank you!
