SHOP ONLINE | ONLINE CATALOG | ABOUT US
I have had 2 tool related items for sale recently on the site, and an interested party agreed to purchase them. He sent me a check from citibank for $1,700 for the items which I had agreed to sell him for $350. He wants me to cash the check then send him the parts and he will tell me how to send him back the extra money. The check came to me in a US Postal Service Priority Mail Envelope with the following return address Hazleton Town Hall, 101 S Main St., Hazelton, IN 47640. He has been corresponding with me by email using the name Jose Fernandez. His email address is rodneycar23@gmail.com. I have not cashed the check but told him I would accept PayPal when I became suspicious.
What would you do?
Run far, run fast. That's a text book scam. Just for grins you might deposit the check (don't spend any of the money) and wait for the bank to say the check cleared. I'll wager a cup of coffee they tell you it's a fraudulent check. I would be VERY surprised if the check was good.

I got a reply from him on an item I have for sale and simply did not reply to him. he is a SCUM BAG scammer.

I would call Citi Bank and give them the routing number and account number off the check. I bet that if he is scamming you he is doing the same to others. For all you know the check is stollen or forged with someone else's information on it.
