I have a Yamaha 5000S pro amp up for sale on the local Craigslist.  A Buyer replied, sounded legit, we negotiated price via CL mail, then this little red flag popped up:

 

 

Dude is buying a pro-amp for his daughter's birthday?  His bank is going to mail me a check, overnight?  His mover will come and pick up the amp?

 

I think not.  B)

Seen this a few times.  When they say they will send a mover, it's a scam plain and simply.  Run

Scammers are sending fake PP emails with bogus charges asking to verify them. When I go to PP through my shortcut, there are no such charges on my account summary. Don't go to PP through the email or they'll have your password.

Yep. I heard that trick as well. Never go thru email. Go directly to site.
