Angry I got the same inquiry

This is the reason we are considering just donating items from now on. This guy responded exactly like this for three items we have listed in the classifieds. I don't believe it is the fault of TOTV (we get the same scams from NextDoor too), it's just the way these scammers work. They want to get as much information from you as possible then try to dig their way into your life savings. The sad truth is we are now a "Let the seller beware" society. They just announced there are 11 Million open jobs. Why don't these Anoles (sp?) get one of them?
