I have received the same response to my posting selling a text book. Luckily for me no one has shown up. I sent another email to find out if this person, going by Stone Richards now, was still interested in buying and received the same emal that I originally received. that was the red flag for me."Hi,Thank for the prompt response to my mail,my secretary will be processingand mail a draft to cover the cost of my purchase as am completelysatisfied with the advert.I will need the details of whom & where tomail the draft.It will be delivered by the United Parcel>Servicewithin 2-3 days.Please note 'United Parcel Service' do not deliver toP.O.Box addresses1.Name to be on the check2.Home address3.Mobile #" thanks for putting up this site Ken

Over the last few days I have been had by the same scammer claiming to be Richard Stone. I tried to sell a TV, he sent me a check via UPS for 1500, told me to deduct the excess money and send it through western union to his mover 'Tom Bayardo'. I did what he told me to do then a couple days later the check bounced and was sent back to his account. I lost roughly 1600+ dollars. Today I went to several banks to speak to the managers about this scam and none of them said they could help me. I also filed a police report and they can't help me get my money back either. I called Western Union and they too can't help me since the scammer picked up the money that I sent him already. If contacting the FBI will help get my money back in any way then I am all up for it and I would help.

i received the same email from a richard stone about an item on craig's list he said he was "hearing-in paird" one of many suspicious things on this email.Hi,Thank for the prompt response to my mail,my secretary will be processingand mail a draft to cover the cost of my purchase as am completelysatisfied with the advert.I will need the details of whom & where tomail the draft.It will be delivered by the United Parcel>Servicewithin 2-3 days.Please note 'United Parcel Service' do not deliver toP.O.Box addresses1.Name to be on the check2.Home address3.Mobile #Kindly delete the posting as am totally committed to buying from youto save me cost,my mover will be coming over for the pick up rightonly after the payment as been delivered and i want you to understandthat,i love to call but am a deaf and only uses a hearing-in pairedphone the relay so please send me an email you leave a message on myvoice mail 9518927140"it will be delivered as an email to me aswell,thank you.Regards

But i have to tell you there is an overdraft in the check because my shipper request payment to register the unit with his company before coming for the pick up.So as soon as u get the check you will cash it and remit the balance to my shipper who will be coming to your place to pick up the item and some other things i have around....... I am doing this based on trust and one mind. and i hope at the end of the business both of us can be friends and get to do better things together.....the address the check will be mailed to is below : I will like you to verify and confirm it is not going to a wrong address. So if that is ok get back to me as soon as possible and expect the payment , but if there is a problem with the address let me know so as to rectify it before it is too late.Regards.On Tue, Aug 18, 2009 at 8:59 AM, Kelly Rowland wrote: Hello,Sorry for the late response..How are you today?
