Please be advised we have been receiving reports of scams and fraud. To help avoid this problem, we recommend you keep all transactions local -- whenever possible, don't do business with anyone who is not in your local area. In particular,
avoid wiring funds to a distant buyer, via Western Union or any other carrier.
Be skeptical if the other party wants to use an escrow service.
Do not give out personal financial information (checking account number, SSN, eBay/PayPal info, etc.). For more thorough tips, we suggest you check out the scam protection advice on Craigslist.
