Beware of a guy on Craigslist now using the name Jonathan Natole from Longwood, Florida. I believe this to be an alias for another reported individual Sam Liu. He tells you he wants to buy your item from you, tries to send $2800 (for an item under $500) asking you to wire money to Alysa Andrus.
He claims that he has a shipper in your area whom he needs your help to pay him for recent pickups that he (the shipper) has made on Jonathon's behalf for other item Jonathon has supposedly purchased in your area. He sends far more money than you were asking for the item, tells you to take the check to the bank, deposit the money, wait for the check to clear, and then to send the extra money via a Money wire back to an individual in Florida. Why not send it himself to the shipper since they both live in Florida?
The FedEx package is mailed from Longwood, Florida. Money wire is to be sent to:
Alysa Andrus
2934 Gimlet Dr.
Deltona, Fl 32738
This is a total scam. See reports for sam liu fraud on craiglist as they are obviously connected. Just look at the money wire addressee. Its the same on both accounts.
I suggest any and all people receiving these money orders or checks to refuse the package and contact the authorities.
