Hello, I'm a first time user of this site.
Faith Walcott has contacted me thru Craigslist for an ad I put up last week and what do you know her name came up on this site. She is trying to purchase my product using a money order and wants me to do her a favor about the shipping, please see the latest email from her or him.
Faith's new email address is faith4sure242@yahoo.com I knew something was fishy.

Hi,
Thanks for your response,it's really nice to hear back from you especially for the details require from you.Meanwhile i have spoken with my shipper comapny agent and he advised that I should send his shipping charges fee together with your payment in the check I wanna send to you,because if I send him a seperate check it would take about 30 working days to clear the check in Australia, while it takes only 24hours/48 hours for the check to be cleared in the United States. So please i would advise you to do me that favour,so that i can instruct my colleague to send you the payment drawn on a bank in the U.S, Then you will deduct your own portion with a 20 compesation for the stress you go throuhgh which makes the total of (the amount of the item plus 20$) for the payment of the (ITEMS ) send the balance to the shipping company in order to come over to the usa for pick up of the ( ITEMS) from your house and other items which i have in trinidad and tobaggo. Please I would need you to do me this favour to avoid any delay. Thanks for your understanding.
Best Regards,

Faith.

Do not tell her NO or anything else! DO NOT RESPOND! Any email she/he/it* receives provides the scammer with more personal information.

* "it" would be the scammer's software that monitors Craigslist and other sites. :idea:
