"Bad Cat Mojo Person" just might be my new standard Internet nickname.

[mapguy]

I totally don't get it...

[cameraman]

Yeah, that would make two of us:confused:

Someone is having fun with a scammer. The person offering to buy the craigslist item will sent a certified check for some amount more than they were supposed to. Then they will ask the person to wire them back the difference. The problem is that the certified check was a convincing fake. The bank may accept it but when they try to pass it to the originating bank they'll find out it's a fake. Meanwhile the victim has wired the funds, which can't be retrieved.

This works sometimes because people trust that a "Certified Check" is as good as cash.

I'm just trying to get the scammer to burn up some postage.
I'm pretty sure $29,500 is higher than market for my Little Tikes laundry set anyway.

Ah! Didn't understand that you were the seller. Well it's a dead give away that you're having him on because Benito Mussolini was never on the Munsters.

Dang, meant to use Lamppost Place. That'll teach me.

[TrueBrit]

Make that three...Oh wait..so it's a variation on the Nigerian Banker scam...we'll deposit $xxxtrillion in your bank account, transfer $yyyytrillion out, you keep the difference...

Got it..
