My wife and I was selling a 1000 gallon propane tank on craigslist for $900.00 We get an email asking if it is still for sale. We replied stating that it was still available. Then we get this email:


Hi,
   Thanks for the response.I am willing to pay your asking price.I will pay by money order as its the only way i can pay you at the moment due to the fact that i am away for an assignment.I will make arrangement for the pick-up after payment have been received by you. I dont mind adding an extra $20 just for you can keep it in my favor.Reply with your full name and address where payment should be sent.Please take the posting off craigslist today and consider it sold to me.
Expecting to hear from you soon.
Regards ....Terry

The next email we get from him is:


Hi,
  I have given my client the go ahead to mail payment to you.You should
receive payment within the coming week( 4-5 days time).Once payment is received
we can proceed with the pickup.Thanks for your understanding and patience.
Regards


The last email we recieve from him states:


Hi ,
   I hope you are fine and alright.Have you received the payment? I have been busy

myself but doing great. There is something i think i must bring to your notice. After

a reconciliation of my account , i discovered that somehow my client must have over

paid you. And for that reason my pay check has been shorten,however i want to believe

i

wont have a problem with you.
 
Please once you receive your payment, i would like you to deduct your money and send

the remaining via Money Gram to the representative of the moving company that will be

coming for the pickup. I will provide the info you need to complete the Money Gram  

transfer.

Thanks once again for your understanding.
Warm regards


We recieved 3 money orders for $850.00 each. My wife took them to our bank to get them verified. When unable to get them verified, she took them to our local police station.
