Received a message from this person for an item I had on Craig's list. The message seemed suspicious so I checked on line and found this person did the exact same thing to other people. Don't know what the scam is, but I am steering clear. The following is the email I got from them. Sounds exactly like the others sent.
Thanks for your response. Please understand that I am not around for inspection and pick up due to the nature of my job. I serve in the U.S military as a CMT(combat medical technician) currently deployed. I am buying this as a gift although I cant present it myself right now. Its strictly no calls now for security reasons but we have secure access to the internet and that is our major means of communication for the main time. I am OK with your asking price and if you dont mind, I can only pay through PayPal at the moment be cause its the most secure way to make or receive payment online and this is why I'll prefer making payment with it. All I need is your PayPal email to make the payment and if you don't have a PayPal account, its pretty easy and secure to set up at www.paypal.com I have a few questions for you.

How old is it? Whats its condition, any damages? Are you the original owner and what is your reason for selling? Can I see a few closely taken pictures?

I hope you consider my offer because I am ready to buy now. Since I can't come, i'll have someone come to inspect and pick up on my behalf after i have made payment and you have cash in hand. Thanks for understanding, hope to read from you soon.
