Craigslist laptop buyer claimed payment was on hold, a scam

View PayPal full profile & all complaints

I had a laptop for sale on Craigslist. The buyer wanted to pay through PayPal only. He said his money had already been withdrawn from his PayPal and was on hold until we shipped the laptop to him, and then we would get the money, $450.

We called PayPal, and they said there was nothing pending in our account. We emailed [email protected], and they said it was all a scam.
