Why must it be a scam? If they send you the money, you’ll have the money! Give them a month or something to pick up the furniture.
“Why must it be a scam? If they send you the money, you’ll have the money! Give them a month or something to pick up the furniture.”
I’ve had this happen to me while I tried to sell some dining room furniture.
The guy said he was a Doctor and traveled frequently. Offered to pay my asking price - without LOOKING at my stuff.
They told me they’d send a check for MORE than the amount, but that they trusted ME to cash it and send them the balance.
I played along and took the check to the police station. They merely gave me a high-five and said I lucked out by figuring it out and that there was NOTHING they could do. They weren’t even gonna try to trace the check or anything.
