Tony Craig responded to my ad on craigslist. He agreed to purchase furniture I posted for $300. He said he would arrange to send a cashiers check by courier to my work address and then sent another email that his secretary had mistakenly wrote a check for $2500. He instructed me to wire him the difference, and recently provided a name of a woman to wire the money to. When I clearly stated I wouldn't and could send the check back to him he wrote me the following email. He has been aggressively emailing me. He has my phone number but not home address. He does have my work address where he was supposed to courier the check.
This is his latest email to me:
Good morning,

courier services. Please I want you to have the moving funds wired to
my mover today as soon as you have the check cashed. so that they will

Advance Fee Fraud
AUTHOR: Andromeda - (USA)
SUBMITTED: Friday, August 14, 2009
Hi, I hope you are aware that the person is trying to scam you. It's called advance fee fraud. They send you a certified check for more than they were supposed to, you're to deduct your expense and fees, and wire the rest. They get money now, and you find out later from your bank that the check was fake and get stuck owing the bank, and can possibly face criminal charges for money laundering. If you tell the guy you are on to him he will drop it and move on to his next potential victim.
