Hey guys- I have received those multiple times, esp when I had adds on craigs list. I have started to look for errors in the msg right away, that is normally the first sign. Not to dog gmail but it seems like a lot of scammers have a gmail account like this:
gailgrat0024@gmail.com (with numbers following the FAKE name). I also look for people that want your info right off the bat and OF COURSE anyone asking for money.
It turns into such a waste of time when you have to dodge all of the scammers... I have since deleted my adds on craigs list and don't get bothered by them much anymore. Horrible to hear that they are putting adds in the PAPER!!!!
