I listed an item on Craigslist and the buyer overpaid for the item by mistake and wants me to return most of
the difference. (Around $60 difference)
Should I be concerned?

Re: Craigslist scams ?
By what means was the over payment made? I am guessing it was not cash. A check? PayPal?
Focus: Cones and flats from Michigan, South Bend, and Fort Wayne. Foreign cans only if I bought them myself in the country of origin.

Re: Craigslist scams ?
Unless he/she paid in cash, I'd be ultra careful. That scam has been around a long time.

Flats, cones & early tabs. Ohio cans, ultra clean cans & shine. East coast cans. Rare rust. And, whatever else catches my eye.

Re: Craigslist scams ?
Any update on this, John? Was it a scam or just a screwup by the buyer? I'd be very suspicious!
