    When your crap sells, or you change your mind, delete your Craigslist ad! It will save me the time of sending a text or email, and it will save you the time to respond!

    Agreed. Tried emailing them about buying a car. Never responded. Ad was posted only like 18 hours ago too. Even gave him my number. Not a damn response.

    If I enquire on a CL ad, and am told the item is sold, and find the ad still on CL the next day (or a few days later), I enquire again. Repeat as you see fit. If is fun to hear people get pissed off when you call them 4 days in a row. LOL

    Yeah. I had something listed, guy emails me asking questions, offers a lowball price, I reply with what I am willing to go down to (which isn't much different than his offer), he stops responding. A few weeks go by and he emails to ask if I still have it, I respond saying yes, and he never emails me again.

    I'm selling a bunch of my 4x4 parts (axles and such). If I had a dollar for every time some chump said to me..... "You still have the axle? You do, great. I'll contact you next week when I get paid." And never hear from them again. Damn web shoppers! LOL

    Before I bought the GP I was looking at an Explorer. E-mailed buddy and made arrangements to talk on the phone the next day. I called and left a message. Waited around all day for a reply. Nothing. The next day I see buddy has a new ad up with something about "don't waste my time if you aren't going to call". I called and ripped him a new asshole, then went and bought a GP. LOL

    I'm sick of scammers too. Has the "certified check" thing ever worked?

    If it didn't work, they wouldn't be doing it. Sad but true.

    The scam that we have had lately is the CRA (Canada Revenue Agency), the tax man, they call and leave you a threatening message saying that you owe money and the police are on their way. The last sucker that fell for this was asked to get $5000 worth of iTunes gift cards. One lady stayed on the phone and bought the cards right away. Really? The government wants you to pay in gift cards? You are a very special kind of stupid and deserve to get hosed. The funny part is that they've left me at least 20 messages over the past year; the guy sounded like and East-Indian trying to do a French accent. It was comical.

    Remember, there is a sucker born every day. Probably more than one, but at least one. LOL

    I shouldn't be surprised. From what I understand, they go after the elderly and there's lots of elderly out here.

    The best way to deal with that type is to do what I did to the assholes calling my mom a few years back.

    Long story short, I took the phone from my mom as she tried to reason with them. Went on a cuss filled tirade. Then the asshole told me it wasn't necessary to use such language to which I responded, it was necessary when you are scamming people out of their hard earned money. I went on to tell him I had friends with connections I and I knew who he was and had sent his information to the FBI.

    She never got another call....
