Seems perfectly legit to me. Be sure to send him all of your banking information too, along with your social security number.

:agree:

It just struck me as odd because of all the demands. All of a sudden i'm no longer in control over the sale. Do this, do that, do this, do that......

I sent a reply asking if he had a 8.8 or dana 60 axle. i'll find out if he actually has a jeep.

i have gotten about 5 of those for the tires i have for sale on craigslist. I reply with asking for a trade and never get an email back.

i also got an email about how i should list them on ebay, with links to related items (WEIRD)

Yeah I don't like the way it sounds either. It is worded like one of those Nigerian scams.

I would do some reseach on money order scams and see if anything pops up.

The other thing would be to tell the guy that you only accept PayPal. If you don't have a PayPal account set one up, takes a few minutes.

I mean who likes going and getting a Money Order anyway when you can just use your card online through PayPal.

You know people print their own "fake" money orders these days.

It reads like it has been translated by a program from some language to English. "avoid disturbance"? I had one other idea, but what would Yoda need with Jeep parts?
