Placed Item on Craig's List. Person going by the name of Sam Levis requested my addresses so he could forward payment. A few days latter a check for $2840. Arrived via FedEx. The check was drawn to a Citibank account from Marriott International Intermediary Partner Care. Return address on FedEx envelope was Sylvania Lighting Service in Monroeville, Pa. On the same date that the check was delivered I received an email from Mr. Levis advising me to deduct cost of item I listed and to forward the remaining $2,490 to the shipper: Dora Munguia Larreinaga, at 2200 Broening Highway, Baltimore, Md. My bank advised me the check is a fake and that this was an ongoing scam. I did not forward the money because I had the insight to follow this through with the bank first.
