Craigslist question? 10 points?

Posted at: 2015-03-04 
I posted something on craigslist and im in new york and people are txting from across the us like in california and indiana why are they? Is it scam

Any time you cannot meet the buyer in person and have them pay you in cash, it's a scam. Unless you're selling some very rare item, there s NO legitimate reason why anyone who is not local would find your listing.

It's either going to be a fake check/money order scam, or they pay with a hacked PayPal account hoping you ship the item before the real account holder discovers they were hacked

Read Craigslist scam warnings, they can't be any clearer http://www.craigslist.org/about/scams

Of course its a scam! It clearly states on craigslist to deal local only where you can meet the actual person in person.

no its because anyone can see it maybe say something like only ppl from new york or something

HA funny why would they do that. I guess they should get more familiar about their area.
