Every time I tried to sell something on CL, I got 5 scam replies for every legit one. After I told one guy to #^&#^&#^&#^& off, he somehow got my address, and sent me 3 checks, in 3 different amounts, to "pay" for what I was selling. They were drawn on some "bank" in Virginia that I never heard of. The best part: all 3 checks had the same check number on them.
2 weeks later, I get an e-mail accusing me of cashing them and pocketing the money, and that he was going to report me to the FBI. I told him that his "checks" were at the Bourne police station, and he could contact them and arrange to get them back.
Never heard another peep.
