A man from this number texted me trying to purchase something I posted on craigslist. First he wanted to pay full price for an item (no negotiation, which is odd for craigslist - first red flag). Then he offered to pay me an additional $20 if I held the item for him until he could "get off work" to come check it out - second red flag. He wanted to pay via cashiers check. When I told him I only take cash, he gave me lame excuses and said he would pay me more if it could be via cashiers check. So I google searched his phone number and found it on another website reporting him as a scammer.
