I posted an ad on CL as well and within an hour I received the exact same email. I knew it could not be real. Googled her name and saw this website!I responded to him/her with "Your a piece of shit" and forwarded her this website. Thanks for posting and warning everyone!

Hello,

This is Jennifer, Thanks for getting back to me I want to buy this but the only way i can pay you is via a Bank Certified Check that i will mail to you using USPS overnight delivery

To make sure that everything goes smoothly i would wait for the check to clear before the pickup is done, I would be responsible for the pickup and it will be done by the movers and their payment will be included in the check i mail to you and this is all due to my disability (am deaf) and it makes it hard for me deal with this and it makes the transaction better and quicker.

I know you were not expecting this and I would have loved to come for the viewing but i cant I really want it and am offering an extra $50 for you to delete the posting to show i want it as i am just settling into my new house i want good deals to furnish the apartment i stay in.

if you are okay with this please send me extra pictures and get back to me with the following

Your Full name
Your Physical address (as the overnight service does not deliver to P.o.boxes)


I await your response . thank you and stay blessed

As soon you confirm the check clearance, you will have to
deduct your own actual payment money from it and give the shipping
company the rest balance of the money to them when they come for the
pick up.If you are willing and ready to accept the mode of payment,
kindly provide me the below information to prepare the check send out

I have been receiving emails from Eadberto Sanchez for a cell phone i am selling on craigslist and same thing....money order through merchant express (which i received a confirmation email from as well) for $300....i was only asking $200. This was supposed to be a birthday present for her son in Nigeria.
I am so glad i googled her before sending the phone out! What got me thinking this was a scam was the confirmation email from Merchant Express in which some of the words were misspelled and did not make any sense. Now i know not to cash any checks if they arrive at my home address......
she even went as far to say "lets trust each other"
