Craigslist, Ebay and other online buying/selling scams.

My college inbox gets a lot of fraudulent emails sent out through compromised accounts.

One of these emails claims to be giving away free items, with no pickup available, asking for address and payment information for "shipping." This information will likely instead be used for malicious purposes, with the "free" items likely not existing.

Here is the email address: [email protected]
