Craigslist scam or not?
Hi,
I am not TOO familiar with craigslist all that much so I have a question about the response I got for my 5 piece drum set that I am trying to sell:
This is the exact email:
Thank you very much for your swift response and for telling me the Item is still available.I am satisfied with the conditions has you have stated in the craigslist. I have a schedule already,for i need to attend an important seminar in Iowa so i wont be able to come to check it at your place.Since i am ok with the condition,i will be sending you a certified check that will cover the amount of the Item and the moving funds.You are to take your money for the item from the check after cleared in your bank within 2-3 days and have the rest sent to the mover via western union money transfer or money gram.For your inconvenience,i will add $50
with the payment to be your running around fee.I'm always a busy person and i will not like to miss this item.The information of the mover will be sent to you after the check is received and he will be at your location for the pick up with a signed note explaining that he will be assuming responsibility for the item on my behalf.

Thank you
Now, in my listing I already mentioned cash and pickup only. But that is what he is saying. I have seen some scam email on craigslist though...So I was wondering if this is a scam or not. Thank you for your time.
