The offer to pay full price and have an agent pick it up.
 

I have used RJ for 12 years and now more than ever I seem to get more and more scam texts. I have found that I have had luck sorting out the scammers by telling them they must call me from a traceable phone number. I explain that is so that I can sort out the scammers to them. If they are legit they have called me. I can only guess that the ones that do not call me are the scammers or maybe I ticked them off. but that is a risk that I will take.

Thanks

If you do not list ANY phone number to call, the scammers won't text you. Make them use the Racing Junk message.

You did the right thing - the scammers tried me today.
They tried the same trick - no negotiation, will pay full price via Cashier's Check, then send a transporter to pick it up after the check has cleared.
Who does that? LOL
They used the phone number 410-200-5xx.
It's the wrong number of digits and the last two numbers were always different.

I have been told that if you play along and let them send you a check, and you deposit or cash it, you can be charged with check fraud.

Yesterday this same thing happened to me, all texts, check then transport will show up, I replied have the transport bring cash and meet me at the local police department, never heard back

I’m getting the same responses to my recent ad. What I can’t figure out is how this benefits the scammer. The offer is that pickup will only happen after the check has cleared.

anybody hear from a number 725-201-7959 las vegas nevada michael christopher. tells me he will pay full price by check as soon as i received it i am to deposit it and have it cleared by my bank then he will handle the pick up. wants my name and address to send check then he will handle shipping through his shipping company

Scam
 

I got a text from the same number saying exact same thing
only difference he said his name was Thomas m Webster

They are still trolling
 

Got messages from "[email protected]" *and* "Thomas" at "205-479-0628" in the first 24 hours. Full price offer, your car is the best, blahblahblah. I responded with the "meet at state trooper office with cash" option. Crickets.

Pulled my phone and making everyone use Racing Junk Messenger from now on.

This guy is still out there with the same scam. I think their payoff must be connected to their request to send you more than the asking price to pay the shipper. Then when you get the check, and before it clears, they will ask for that extra money back from you. If you send it then the check bounces and you are screwed. Note that I never got that far with them, and this is only my personal opinion. They could be legitimate, but I do not want to take that risk.

Most banks will clear the check after a few days. I think that is the law. If the check comes back a week or so later and bounces you are liable for it. Your account is funded and you think everything is good and you release your product. a week later the check comes back. I have one right now sending extra money and he wants me to take my share out and send him the rest. He sent a check and it is a not good. I'm selling an ultra case 3rd member and I don't think this guy even knows what an Ultra case is.

Thank you for the information
 

Guys,
I just wanted to say "Thank you" for the information. I just got contacted by Michael Christopher (michael1christopher12@gmail). Said that he would pay full price, send a cashiers check, and arrange for transport with his transporter. I was suspicious because all of the communications were texts, no phone conversations. I knew that I would have done things totally different, that is why I became suspicious. I was searching this site, and seen his name. You guys (and girls) saved me a lot of grief.
Regards,
Dave
