I have my Triton Trailer on Craigslist for sale. This morning I received a text from some person inquiring about the trailer and asked about it's condition the bottom dollar asking price and etc. After we agreed on the price, his next text was wanting to send me a cashier's check saying once I had deposited into my account he'd pick up the trailer. Getting a little suspicious, I told him I only accepted cash. Well then he offered to send the money to my Paypal account. Still being suspicious, I replied that I didn't have a paypal account, even though I do. He then proceeded to tell me about Paypal and how to open an account. Again I told him I would only accept cash and I have not responded any further to his text.
Is this a scam, like I suspect? His request to deposit the money in my PP account tends to make me think this could be legit....but I'm not sure.
Also the area code on his phone number is in San Jose Cal and I'm in Florida. This too makes me think its a scam.
What do you think?
