Scam stinks more than Spam


If you are a regular Craigslist user, be aware that some spammed target your every move and will email you a bail letter saying they got a few task for you and once you reply back the trap is set. The scammer is pretty good at relying conversational messages and around the 3th time, it will be asking you for personal information and how to send the payment without you even touching the item.

Please my dear friends, don't fall for this. Its better if you take caution when
negotiating in craigslist and ask for a number so you can communicate person to person but that does not garrantee it will be a valid buyer so use these tips:
  • Always Ask questions
  • Meet in public places
  • Talking and txt on the phone is better than Email
  • NEVER give your personal information
  • If something smells funny, pause and ask him a multiple question "4*4"
Use these guidelines to assure you are not waiting your time and they are not stealing your money. Some of these scammers can also hijack your computers information if you let them in. If you want Silvermyst to scan your whole computer for threats, give us a call today :) 

Remm. Play smart.
