Is this a scam?
i am selling a laptop on craigslist (on the springfield, mo listings). i got this email from somebody, and it sounds slightly fishy to me.

"I am very glad to hear back from you. I am a University Senior
lecturer residing in Brooklyn ,N.Y. I came across this ad on
Craigslist and thinking of my Son's Birthday coming up soon, I would
love to get an awesome present for him, which he really wants, he was
currently transferred from USA to West Africa with his team on a
research on Human development under world Health Organization.I'll be
paying you through PayPal,it's secure and protects two parties in a
transaction. I will forward my son's residential address to you for
shipping as soon as the payment reaches you. Please kindly get back to
me ASAP,so that i can make the payment there.

NOTE : I will be paying you $275 for item and i will include $125 to
cover up the cost price for the shipping fee. Get back to me with your
PayPal email asap.

Regards
Mr Smith"

i am trying to figure out why a guy in new york with a son in africa is searching the springfield craiglist ads. any advice about this situation? i don't know if he could scam me just by getting my paypal address, can he?

It is probably illegal to ship a laptop overseas on the first place.

what they'll do is later send you an email to clear the payment through a link in the email. Then if you enter your password in the fake paypal sign in they'll get your password there. My previous post was a joke on taking the money. Don't give them your email. You should always have your email name different than your ebay ID.
