Quick response !

As our trip to Alaska is off we put our SS-1251 on Craig's list last nite . This morning We had an E-mail from a guy in Mexico saying to get it ready to ship and he said there was purchase order enclosed . I never found the purchase order . I believe he is a Nigerian prince , he would not lie , would he ?
  • I have mine on CL as well and when I get responses like you allude I know it is a scam.

    I put in my ad the following words:
    "Please reply with "CAMPER" (plus your favorite football team in the subject line to eliminate BOTs and SPAM.) "

    If I do not see the above in the subject line (or some will include it in the body text of the reply) then I ignore it totally. So far all inquiries have been serious potential buyers.
