i ALMOST got scammed for a purebred puppy a few years back. Luckily, my paranoid self Google searches everything before closing out on any deal. 

i googled the email and everything seemed fine. im just sad. i have no other words to show i feel. this sucks. i could have really used that money on so many other things

I almost got got on CL for some rims I was selling. Dude mailed me the fake money order and everything. Luckily I talked to my pops about it, and he told me that they scam folks just like that. I sent his money order back and told him to kick rocks.

you dun goof'd

You ain't no idiot, you just a new fool.

They always just charge half  because it ain't legit. All they do is use credit cards to pay phone bill and other fees they charge for canceling lines. It''ll be ok for about a month then it gets charged back leaving you with an even higher bill with returned payment fees.

 

[thaisativa1]

you just got molested via craigslist

I remember there was a guy on NT that offered to cancel T-Mobile lines for $80 flat

 never got them 

this sux. im a mess n/h. ive never been scammed. this sucks. does anybody know if western union will have more info of the person that picked up the money transfer? i know im pretty much screwed for $950/ but im j/w if anybody knows if western union will do anything. is there any way to track down the person with the phone number? 

i  dont know what to do 

Do you have the number or address of the person that scammed you?  I mean, you did send the money order to an address, right or was it sent through the internet (not sure if that's possible)?  I wonder if you could call ATT and ask for the information on how it was paid...
