Craigslist scam?

[McDicks]

Ok so I did this scam on craigslist, selling itouch for 200$ paypal because I am out on business. Well I posted it from a library but now I am always getting ghosted. How do I post more ad's and get more people to fall for it?

What do you mean by "ghosted"?

I believe he's accepting the paypal payment and not sending out the itouch.

Ghosting is when craiglist decides your ad's dodgy and doesn't actually post your ad onto the main page, but leaves you with a "ghost" of your ad that only you can see, leading you to believe that your ad has actually been posted.

Basically. Just don't ship the shit all he is left with is a fake paypal and email address.

That won't do anything, sending money through multiple paypal accounts is NOT laundering obviously you need to read up on the subject before posting here. All that will do is get all of your paypals linked and locked.

Good ips, fresh content and plenty of accounts.

Somethings probably wrong with your ip, if you're using a proxy or VPN its probably been blacklisted or is obviously dodgy. The ip should probably be in the same country/area as the ads targeted location.

Can someone fill is in more on how to cash out on the money once you receive it? If passing it through multiple accounts doesn't work, then what will? I know there are 3rd party companies that you can send it to and then cash out somehow, but isn't that kinda shady? Why can't you just file a dispute saying they did receive it and they are lying (when you have a tracking # on the fake package)?

I have the same question. If you spent all the money in your PayPal as soon as you got it would that work? They cant take back money that you dont have...
