It is a terrible problem now because of all the scammers out there! I can't tell you how many requests I get on behalf of the Prince of Nigeria or what have you when I have posted things for sale on a local Craigslist. I have stopped advertising any machines I am selling on CL for that reason and am only sticking to legit. lists. I recently had put a Pfaff on CL-it was my M-i-L's, Bless her heart, and I got this terribly written, spelled, and organized email about how they would "send a representative" to pick it up after I received a cashier's check... what a story. That is when the delete button comes in handy!
