I never answer emails that state they've been trying to reach me but Craigslist email isn't working and they provide another email address off Craigslist. It's a scammer. You get a long email describing their daily routine or that they are out of town right now but want to arrange to meet. It's a scammer. They want you to take a money order and pay the shipper. Always a scam. Refer back to only take only cash payments. I don't make an appointment unless they call me to discuss arranging the appointment. If they won't call me, I don't set up the appointment.
