I'm selling a Garmin GTM-25 cable on th elocal craigslist, had the ad up for about 2 weeks. I get an email today that looks legit,
No spelling errors, no mention of escrow accounts or anything...
I have a few options.
1- don't sell it to him at all.
2- take money via paypal, and remove the amount to my bank, waiting the 2-3 days and verifing the money is in my account before I ship it.
3- ask him to mail me cash.
4- ask him to mail me a money order, and cashing the money order before shipping him the cable.
Money orders could be faked, but moving the money into my bank acount in paypal, or asking for cash, should be foolproof, right?
email said:Hi -
Would you be willing to sell the gtm-25 and mail it to me in Minnesota? I could pay you via PayPal for the item plus shipping.
Thanks,
Dale
