The MacBook Pro scam is in St. Louis too, I called his bluff at the western union request and he became irate. It was the same dialogue that has been posted here - claims he just moved and the time is in a warehouse conveniently far enough away that you cannot get it yourself, moneybookers look alike link sent from a moneybookers adddress, pasted in with link to western union.
I reported it to craigslist and it's gone now. I tried to get through to moneybookers as they are the ones that are getting their reputation smeared, no luck. Have to have a UK address to register for sending an e-mail. No toll free numbers either. Will print it out and send snail mail, it really angers me that a few have to ruin a good thing.
Not sure what else to do, he did list a name and address for the wire so perhaps there is a way for the UK to investigate? Any suggestions?
BUYER BEWARE, even on craigslist.
