I listed an item for sale via craigslist and everything seemed fine until he sent me a check for much over the amount and asked that I put the money through money pak to pay for the shipping charges to a moving company that was picking up. This seemed very odd to me and i questioned him extensively, the check "cleared" and i did as he asked. However, i was not aware that my particular bank would list things as cleared even when they had not been and so ended up losing money three days later. I was sent a second check to cash without my knowledge and was extremely suspicious, i went to my bank and discovered that the money i had originally put into my account was gone.
