Have you ever tried selling something online and had to deal with scammers? I'm trying to sell my couches and I've got someone texting who seems pretty suspicious. I've decided to document my interactions with him. What do you think? Is this guy for real?

Scammers are so stupid. When they use you to cash out a check or do any work for them, they expect you to do it immediately even if the bank is closed or you’re busy at the moment but the scammer keeps telling you to do it immediately no matter what.

I've had this happen when I was homeless and 19 in Florida. Someone on Craigslist offered house keeping job, and sent me a check of 3k. To buy the cleaning supplies and pay whatever I didn't spend to a 3rd party "boss". The check came, and it was from a church, not a housekeeping company. Walmart wouldn't even let me cash it lol

I think a lot of people can fall for bad cheques. Can you answer my question about bad cheques? What do the scammers have from it? How do they get money when the cheque bounces? I understood from other videos it looks as if your money is there and then it is gone and the bank charges you for a bounced cheque. I thought you just lose a bit of money like with any bounced cheque. How do you recognize if it is a real one or not?

There are no real movers. Now, the scammer will ask him to send the payment to the movers via Western Union. Somebody unaware of the scam might do it, thinking that it's fine since they deposited the check. Problem is, it will bounce a few days later and they'll be out-of-pocket the cash they sent to these fake movers.
