I was told by my assistant that your item is still for sale ,i would have
loved to come and see it,but my schedule is very tight.I will mail out your
payment once you provide your full name.phone number and address.I can only
pay via money order as am on a business trip now,pls let me know where to
send your payment to because i wouldn't want to lose it to someone else.I
don't mind adding thirty ($30) dollars so you can keep it in my favor,you
should get your payment in 4-6 working days i will appreciate if you can get
the ad off craigslist so i can be sure you are keeping it in my favor.Please
let me know as soon as you receive it so i can start making arrangement for
the pick-up.
Thanks

This Jonathan Green scammer just tried the same thing on me when I had an item on Craigslist for $200 and he mailed me what appeared to be a cashier's check for $2050.00 and emailed me to send the balance back by Western Union. There was no return address on the envelope he mailed the check in, but post office marked it from Wilmington, DE 197. Check is marked Cashier's Check from US Bank National Association, Minneapolis, MN55480 with remitter Jaime Terry 2044 Appleton Gran Chute with routing number: 092900383

first email from Jonathan Green [email protected]
Hi ,
Your payment has been sent but there is something i think i must bring to your notice immediately. I just discovered there is an error in the payment sent to you. My assistant sent the payment meant for another item thats more expensive than yours. I have called the post office to see if they could retrieve it but nothing positive. I really dont know what to do now. Please and Please, you can go ahead and cash out the check at your Bank when you receive it, deduct your payment and send the balance via western union to the details i will provide you with. Can i trust you to do that for me?
jonathan

second email:
Hello confirming if you have received payment if so pls endeavour to send the balance via western union to the following details so that i can use part of the money to pay the shipper that will do the pick up..The address you gave to me will it be the pickup address?
details is below



NAME OF RECEIVER======JONATHAN GREEN

ADDRESS==================404 EDGWARE RD

CITY:==================== LONDON

COUNTRY:============= UNITED KINGDOM

ZIP CODE=====================W2 1ED

Send me the transfer details after doing that. i.e

And pls don,t forget to deduct the western union charges from the difference
thanks

Fortunately, googling "cashier's check scam" provided the crucial information needed so I was not taken in.
Then googling jonathan green scam got me to this website.

Re: Snow Tires Car
scott nicole to you

Hello

My assistant told me that it's still for sale. I'm fine with paying
your asking price and I can make your payment either by check or money
order because I am currently away on a business trip. I will make the
arrangement for pick-up AFTER you have received the payment. I don't
mind adding a little extra ($30 or so) for any inconvenience this may
cause you. You should receive your payment within 4-6 business days.
The only information I need from you is your full name, cell phone
number, and your address where you'd like me to send your money!
Also,i will appreciate if you can get the ad off craigslist so i can
be sure you are keeping it in my favor .Awaiting your reply. Thank you

Thanks to all who have posted about this person. I have some dishes on craigslist and he replied and asked if they are still available. I did reply but something did not seem right about his e-mail address. I looked made up, so I googled his e-mail address and it brought me right here. Thank you so much for all the info you all have provided and I am sorry to those of you that were, essentailly, robbed. You stopped me from making a HUGE mistake
