Complaint 220420 Details

I posted a Composter for sale on Craigs List on March 8, 2013, my posting ID 3667148529, at 9:59 a.m.

Danny Ganjar ([email protected]) responded asking if I still had my item for sale.

I responded that I did. My response was followed up by an email from Cragic Moffla ([email protected]). Email address [email protected]. He said that he wanted my item and he ask for my address and phone number which I sent to him. He said that he was in the US Navy and would pay an extra $20 for me to hold the item. Once I received payment he would make arrangements to pick up the item.

On March 9, 2013 he sent an email saying that his associate sent payment meant for another transaction and he hoped that he could trust me to return the extra money. When I received payment I should go to my bank and cash the money order, keep my money and send the balance to him.

On March 14, 2013 he emailed that I would receive payment that day. I received his check in the amount of $945. It was a US Postal Money Order dated 12/05/2012 and the address on the money order was Sue Costa, 1251 East Avenue, Chico, CA 95926.

I received another email from Cragic Moffla stating that he had received an alert from USPS that the payment had been delivered to my residence. I should go to my bank and deposit the check into my bank account, then deduct my money and withdraw the balance money and go through Western Union money transfer MONEY IN MINUTE to:

Name: Cragic Moffla
City: Cotonou
Country: Benin
Test question: What is the color of the sky
Answer: Blue

He said "After sending the money, please email him the following details: 1. MTCN (10 digit numbers), 2 Sender's Name and Address, 3. Total amount sent after deducting transfer charges (please pay the transfer charges from my balance money). Please ensure you get this done today. Once I receive the western union transfer details from you, I will email the details on how the pick-up will be effected."

I realized when he said that a check had been send for too much money it was indeed a scam. I still have the check and will not do anything with it.
