I know we've all heard about the emails "where we'll send our shipper/agent just email us the address for the cashiers check, but my question is a little different. And those scams are about getting your info. I'm selling a forklift the price is only a few grand. A business owner and his son looked at it. We arrived at a price a few days later via email and phone. he said he would pay with cashiers check or money order or wire transfer. (any of which can now be scammed). I chose CC and he said he would mail it so it had time to clear. He has been trying to arrange a hauler and kind of wanted me to haul it but I'm not really equipped for that. He is about 2 hours away. Sun he called and was about 1 hour away and offered to meet me with the check but I was not home. One of my buddies has me all worried about the payment, now. He says he would never take anything but cash. Its kind of hard to tell a business to bring you thousands in cash. But, really, he said it was drawn on a local bank and when the driver gets here can't I call them and check it? After all, how is a business man supposed to go out and make such purchases. I know cash is king, too. We've spoke several times on the phone and its kind of too late to mail it since his hauler would probably beat the check here. I don't think everyone is a crook are they?
