I responded to the ad on Craigslist for Guitar Hero Wireless Guitars. It was some lady "Sandra" who responded with the following info which took me to some site where I had to pay $79.00 in order to bid on stuff. Scam.

Hello
Just sold this to someone else, but I can tell you where I got it from.
I just got 3 of these from pennyhunters.com and I resold them on here for some extra money.
The trick is to watch for bidding to slow down and then place your bid. That's what I do and I win all the time.
Regards

- I got the same message from Sandra Adams after inquiring about a Blackberry Playbook for $98.00 on Craigslist. I am glad I decided to Google "Penny Hunters". That is how I found this site.

Went to the site that is bidcactus.com not penny hunters and for $79.00 you can sign up and start bidding.What a scam!!!In the email it does say from Sandra Adams <[email protected]> And the Kindle was $75.00 this time.
