Same as others- responded to Craigslist about furniture and offered an overnight cashiers check with extra $50 to hold. Thanks to others for posting.
(347) 549-2509
New York phone offering to buy furniture from California. They ask for name and address and offer to send cashier's check. However, they responded 10 minutes after ad was posted and didn't respond to repeated requests to call to confirm. Not sure their play but others report same scam.
