Got a fraudulent {i'm sure} email today, but it didn't regard ebay or paypal OR this newfound craigslist, so i really don't think i have anyone i can forward it to as 'spam/fraud-attempt' ... it went like this:
Subject: Your order # 12405 has been accepted for the amount 840.00$
Sony DSC-F828 8.0MP Digital Camera
Your order # 12405 has been accepted for the amount 840.00$
Your card will be charged in that amount .Thank you for your purchase.

Most ISP's have an abuse so try and send that email to the sellers ISP [email protected].
I know webtv uses it and so does Yahoo.
Now if only I could spell.

It's spam. I've gotten several of them stating my order for one thing or another has been accepted.
I figure they hope some of the people they send it to will click on the url's in the body of the email and that it would allow them to get your info somehow. I just delete them.
