Company of what? Or Product of what????

I'm NOT dissatisfied; just trying to tell about a scammer!

3rd of May, 2015 by User90048

It's still going on: THANK YOU FOR LETTING ME KNOW THIS! It looks like the same person ([email protected]), but going by the name "Alicia Thompson" now.

I can't believe this is STILL happening and that they have not found this person or persons: I looked up this e-mail address on google because the 'wording' sounded weird, and here you're talking about the same address, and same wording, and all. You posted this feb 2013, and it's now 2015!

Here is the e-mail 'she' wrote:

Thanks for your response, I'm ok with the asking price and the
description stated so I would like to send payment asap to you via UPS
Next Day Air from my bank. Please let me know if a certified check is
ok.. After my check clears my Mover will come and pick it up at your
location... I would have come and take a look of it but I can't... My
business trip come earlier than I plan(on a business trip ). If you
can get back to me with your info below... I'll mail the check out
asap. Need your FULL NAME to write on the check and FULL ADDRESS with
Apt #/suite # ,Your Cell Number and your FINAL asking price.... to
mail the check out asap.
Best Regards

So instead of telling them that I'm on to them, I decided to make them know they are an asshole without really saying it to them, this is what I wrote:

I'm Sorry Alicia but I have lost my job, again, do to back pains and sickness and that's why I need to start selling my things so I can eat and maybe have something to pay my rent next month or I'm out. That's why I was so happy that someone might actually buy it, even though I'm only asking less than half as much as I paid for it 15 years ago.

But these days, with so many lazy asshole scammers out there taking advantage of people, instead of working for a living, like you & I, I now only deal in cash. You must be pretty-well-off, to have your own mover, wow. So I have a great idea for you; since your 'mover' will be here in person anyway, you can just give the check to him and he can cash it, or you could just give him the cash, and that way he can just hand it to me when he comes to get it. Does that sound like a better idea?

I cannot issue a check to a mover .. You can send your Name and
address for the payment if you're ready to sell.

Hi, I am not sure if you received my previous 2 messages, I am much interested in getting it but I am not available today due to a death in the family,the earliest would be Wednesday night. I can meet with you wherever it is convenient for you,I was thinking a Starbucks or Walgreen's would be good but I can as well come to your house if okay by you and finalize the purchase with cash payment. I work mornings and I'm not off until Wednesday (tomorrow) so would not be able to meet you until then, I am so ready to pick it up with cash once we meet tomorrow. Do you mind sharing a phone number with me too so we can set up a time to meet? Text me your number @ [email protected] in order to set up something asap. Thank You
