Flag that ad! It is a spammer who will spam anyone that replies, forever. All these CL ads are being posted around the country to collect email address for permanent spamming.

I second that, these are showing up in every city Craigslist feed I monitor. Always the same thing, they want you to reply to a gmail (mostly first name, middle initial, last name) address instead of the ad responder. I've been flagging several of these a day. Really aggravating.

too good to be true no doubt, only 10-15% of what its worth.. might be funny to get the guys address to pick it up directly and hold him to his price, with a shotgun!
Sold!
All he wanted was my SSN (he said to make sure I wasn't a scammer), first dogs name, mothers maiden name and street I grew up on. Seemed like a good deal. I gave him my bank routing info and he will just draw the money out himself before he ships the game.

Won't work. "Seller" will respond that it sold, but they got it from a great new auction website and here's a handy link to it.............................. Spam, Spam, Spam, Spam
Been popping up all over CL.
Wow i am surprised at how well some of you guys know the scam. 
I hope my local flipper fell for it too!
