I am not sure if this person was legit or not. They e-mailed me about my item and wanted to send me a MO. I said okay, she was having someone come to pack them and ship the item. No problem. I got an e-mail this morning.

I want you to understand that the deal is on and my secretary as posted the payment promptly, but there was a little problem which i guess we can handle with care while i contacted her to confirm if the payment as been mail out i was made to understand that its actually as been sent and but instead of the actually amount $100 for the item,she made out the check for $2500 she claim that was what i requested but she didn't get that straight.
The payment was already posted before i was inform about this but i wouldn't want this to delay the sale as i have rectify this with my Bank and all you do once you have the payment is to take it to you Bank and have it cashed and you will then deduct the money for you good plus a 100 dollars for all the trouble i have put you thought during the course of this transaction as well as for your running around.The excess fund on the payment will then be wired to my mover via western union that same days so that he can come for pick up as i already plan on using the excess on the payment to offset the cost of the various shipments he as undertaken on my behalf.Do let me know if i can trust you to have the excess sent to my mover thank you,best Regards

Like I say, I am not sure if it is legit or not, but I am very leary and I told her I would not do this. I have not heard back as of yet and she has always been very prompt in responding. So, my suggestion is only accept the money for your item, I have heard of people doing this scam and then your bank getting hit with the extra money. Please watch what you do. If I have to relist, I will only accept cash on pickup or paypal.

SCAM SCAM SCAM!! Run do not walk from this deal!!

The trigger is, they 'accidently' send you too much money, then expect you to send the excess back. Problem is, the check they sent you is fake all along and you end up giving money from your own acct.

Back together!! Sept 28th Boston TDCenter!! Woohooooo!

Never respond to these type of emails. Never respond if someone offers a money order. Always deal with local people - and preferably cash only!

SCAMA-LAMA-DING-DONG! I was just reading about that. Dont send them anything and if they send you a mo contact the local police. mhm.
