Thanks- I did a google search for Sam.mike02@gmail.com and this came up. I had a feeling from his moronic reply to my Craigslist post that it was a scam. Also, when I hit reply to his email to send him a friendly ‘go f yourself’ it was a different address: albertsmith1000@gmail.com.

got a scammer email from albertsmith1000@gmail.com, typical of all of them, there is the generic mention of the item, rather than the actual item’s description or specific q’s:
Do you still have it for sale and how much are you willing to go down to. Kindly cc/forward your response to my work email at ” albertsmith1000@gmail.com ” i will reply right away. Thanks
Yup! Just got an email from Mr. Smith (albertsmith1000@gmail.com).
The bad English was what made me cautious. Already fell into a Ms. Jill Messier’s trap before. Luckily got out of it before was too late.
Never never NEVER provide any information they are asking.. I respond with questions rather than answers and don’t care if I sound rude. craigslist has become a business for scammers, always proceed with caution and don’t provide any personal information of u can help it.
Just got an email from this guy this morning also the exact message was “Do you still have it for sale and how much are you willing to go down to. Kindly cc/forward your response to my work email at ” albertsmith1000@gmail.com ” i will reply right away. Thanks”
No mention of the actual item and I clearly put in the add don’t ask if I still have it, if it is still posted I still have it.

After awhile you get a sense of what scammers responses look like and this definitely looked like a scammer. Thanks so much to everyone for the ‘heads up’. Really appreciate you all taking the time to let us know about this.
Thank you very much for attempting to solicit personal information from me for the obvious purpose of a scam. If you truly fear God, I wonder what he’d say to you now given the opportunity. Have a wonderful day.

Jerks.
Just got an email from lbes5236@gmail.com for an item I have on Craigslist. They stole a real estate company’s information. The company is real but the email is a scam.

– who seem to be sharing – TWO email IP 173.194.68.26 – & – 173.194.68.27 –
– Why can’t some person at Google -“PULL-THE-PLUG”
PS – It is a COMPUTER – Programed to click Craigslist postings as fast as they are posted, it is VERY Fast !
It can send – 4 requests for contact – about 4 different postings –
containing 4 different email return addresses – – in Less than 60 Seconds!!
If anyone can help to STOP and/or SLOW these Spams & Scams
I have a LONG list of BOGUS – @gmail.com – & – @live.com addresses.
I do not know how or where to report them
