Sadly these types of scams are all to common, and about 10 years ago my roomate sold his couch on Craigslist, and long story short he got scammed with a legit cashiers check, he even called the bank and verified, still when he cashed it the funds had been withdrawn and it wasnt until two weeks later that the check was returned and he was left holding the bag for about $2500.00 He had not recourse , and the FBI did contact him about a organized crime ring passing off bad checks all over the area. Moral of the story... CASH ONLY!!! and deal with the person face to face, if it seems shady, don't do it !!
