It is the same old scam that is done on Facebook and craigslist and every other social media site out there. Yes, they want you to send the item before the check is cleared and it will not take 2 to 3 days it can take weeks.
I sold a golf cart here for $2800 more than I was asking for. a person from California wanted me to ship it to them. I got the cashiers check delivered the next day. No I never cashed the check and no I never sent the cart. And the person never called to check to see if I even received the check.
Do not give away your information on the Internet. But I deal with people on Facebook marketplace. Who are you in afraid to talk to people but they’re trying to sell an item. And always trust your gut
