I almost fell for a scam. I posted a sofa for sale, and I got a message from a stanford email, asking me to message a North Carolina number. Strange, but ok. The person asked for close-up photos, but did not negotiate the price. I offered my tv and mattress for sale. He didn't even ask for photos. No negotiation. He told me that he was out of town for now, but his office will send me a check in the mail, and that he will send movers to pick up the furniture. This seems eerily similar to a scam posted on this board, where apparently the plan is that the person 'overpays' on a fake check and then asks us to pay back in some way. I didn't go that far because my spidey sense started tingling. Some things that I found suspicious: 1. Didn't even try to negotiate on the prices. 2. The person was the cousin of the student whose email was used. 3. The person gave the name Dr. Yang Wang, physiotherapy consultant. I could not find any such person online. 4. He asked me to delete my post immediately after we both agreed on the price.
