Selling on Craig's List

A word of warning:

I was talking this morning to a relative who sold a TV a couple of days ago.  The bait was that the one who purchased offered more for the TV than my relative had asked, and the buyer offered to pay in cash.


Only after it was all over did my relative discover that each of the bills was marked with a statement that the bill was NOT legal tender and of no value at all.

My relative will be discussing this more with the police.   But, probably the TV is now gone and the bills were marked.

My comments to the relative:

*  Take this  as a learning lesion.

*  Rejoice that you were not hurt.

*  As you believe that you can identify the person, discuss it with the police.

I will never buy or sell anything using Craigslist.   If you watch court shows on TV [Judge Judy and others] you'll find that most of the scams perpetrated on unsuspecting victims occurred by using Craigslist.
