Anyone else feel like this? How does some scammer post all over the country? Does he actually take the time to draw up the ad for each posting?

You may not want to text the number. That might be the whole purpose of his posting is to gather phone numbers or such. You never know what these people are up to.

Sounds like a couple of posts with "Free swingset" or "Free scrap metal" with that phone number are in order. hahhahaha

Keep putting the ads up here, two of the three were already being removed and I only got to flag the third.

I've been flagging some scammer who keeps posting Lincoln and Miller welder/generators for $1502. I can't believe how many times it keeps popping up.

Texting the phone numbers in the scammers ad's does nothing but add your phone number to their data base. What they use this info for I'll never know...seems worthless to me.

These scammers don't actually have a real cell phone they talk & text on like everyone else.

They use a computer program to generate a fake area code and phone number that actually routes directly to their computer. They have multiple "cell phone" phone numbers they use at any given time that aren't real phone numbers.

If you have interest and some extra time on your hands, CALL one of these fake numbers using a REAL HOUSE PHONE that doesn't allow text messaging. The scammers are at a disadvantage when they can't play text games.
