Sol, they don"t send you any money--they send you a bogus (bad, fake, no good, no funds,) cashiers check, and instruct you to cash it, and send the balance left over in a money order. They also have an accomplice come to your house, to make sure you ship the item, and the money order! now, if you send everything within 2-3 days, the bank hasn"t had time to verify the cashiers check that they have already given you money for, you"ve sent a big balance back to the scammers, and the iten you are selling, and then the bank calls and tells you that the check you cashed is a phony, and that you are responsible for paying back the money they gave to you for the no-good cashiers check. NOW!! You will be out that money, plus the balance of the large check they sent, that you have already mailed off to them, in the money order, which can"t be recalled, and is as good as gold! And, whatever you had up for sale! AND! you"ll be lucky if the bank doesn"t have you arrested for passing bad checks, bank fraud, and a lot of other charges! Why, last year here in Pittsburgh, the police arrested some guy holding a big package of fake cashiers checks, along with lists of advertised items, peoples addresses, etc.! Turned out he was one of those scammers! From: Rusty Jones
