S-C-A-M.....
The only way to sell anything anymore is let your bank handle a bank to bank funds transfer...either buying or selling.

Agree, it's a scam. I received a similar response when I advertised a lift on Craig's List. Would not try to sell another thing on it. Don't give out your address, this is a robbery waiting to happen.

Do not even reply to these people, when they email you, it goes through
Craigslist and they don't have your real email address, when you reply to
them, they now have your actual email address.
Give them no information, not even your email address.

Wow! I would hesitate to do that - you have a window there where you have a LARGE amount of cash on you while in transit that they know will be occurring ...

See, I didn't think these people actually got the money.... I naively thought it was just people with way too much time on their hands screwing around with other peoples heads. But they actually get paid through PayPal? Amazing.
