Just as per this thread (thanks for posting it, btw!!):
Some sort of SCAM....not sure????
I received an email from a Frank Mayer (mayer.frank70@yahoo.com) asking about something I had in the For Sale forum. I received this check in the mail recently (over 2 grand more than the agreed-to price):
Called Wells Fargo in San Fran and they verified that the “Green Dot” account check was a fraud. Said they couldn’t do anything and the police weren’t interested in tracking down the perps and thanked me for calling. Oh, well…guess it’s up to me to have some fun now…
Since “Frank” told me I didn’t have to worry about shipping and that he would organize a “hauling company” to pick up the goods, I’m thinking of packing up a couple landscaping stones in a box with a nice note attached…LOL..
Anyway, just wanted to share with any others out there who have/haven’t gotten this far with “Frank”…
