I advertized, on Craig's List, a matched set of four 235/60R16 Bridgestone Blizzak winter tires, mounted to a matched set of BMW O.E.M. Alloy wheels, for $1,000.00, plus shipping costs. The respondent indicated interest, sight unseen, and tried to pressure me to quickly consummate the sale, by sending two separate "cashier's checks", from two different banks, in two different states, both in the amount of $2,500.00 "for my trouble", and both checks with the identical signature on them. Fortunately, his insistence on haste sent up a red flag, and I did not follow through with the transaction, thus saving myself a lot of grief.
