You guys know I sell birds and eggs. One of the places I advertise is on Craigslist. Tonight I was contacted by a scammer.

I'm no retard, so no big deal. However, some of these scams seem innocent enough. Some have a friendly human being on the other end knowledgeable in whatever you have for sale.

Don't take a check. Don't take a cashier's check. Don't read anyone a code you were sent to verify you're real. If someone wants to buy a few dollars in goddamn eggs, fuck them if they can't bring you cash without some kind of runaround.

Use your brain. Don't get your identity stolen or your phone hijacked or whatever Dinesh is trying to scam out of you.

what;s wrong with reading the code?

Nothing is wrong with reading the code, but giving it to the scammer means you just served as verification for something shady. Or, they just used your # to verify an account of some type.
