====================
THIEF SCAM Magical Chase Turbografx 16 - $1 (Sacramento)

I'm writing this to warn everyone of a very low life individual. He will try to sell you rare games like Magical Chase for Turbografx 16 for low prices. He will then give you the addresses below or try and meet you in a public space like Safeway (So, you'd have no way to test game your getting and be stuck with broken merchandise). If you ask to test the game, he will scout you out in his apartment complex parking lot to see if you're alone and try to rob you if you're indeed ALONE. He is a black individual with a suspected Mexican accomplice and has many stolen goods and is desperate for money. DO NOT engage with this individual as from my research he is already a felon and could be in a gang that will rob you blind. I'm already compiling evidence to send to the local police department to try a thwart this low life from robbing or screwing over anyone else. ALL information I have on this individual is listed below. Thank you. Photo's of item he used to lure me to site are included.

Suspect number he uses:
Phone number 1-510-715-8737

He will also tell you that he lives in the area code (95660) or North Highlands.

Address incident occurred at:
4215 Palm Ave, Sacramento, CA 95842. Apartment 34 / 32 / 43 / or 42. E-mail is pj9vt-5295480137 at sale.craigslist.org. Goes by NELSON FAMILY.

That's what you get for being greedy, Magical Chase for $1 yeah right!

Jokes aside I hope not many people got scammed by these lowlifes. I joke but you have to be triple extra careful in a too good to be true situation like that.

[SignOfZeta]

Well, at least he's not some scum bag charging $3000 for a f*cking video game. He's got some thread of humanity.

true that, if its way too good to be true, id hestitate to meet up with the seller.

[SplatterTrigger]

Wow what a terrible person.

[Necromancer]

Sounds like a real d-bag, like any petty criminal.

Damn that is nuts.  I always meet people in public places when buying/selling on Craigslist. 

Colorado has concealed carry too which makes it a bit easier to stay armed if you're concerned, but it doesn't always help.

[Necromancer]

f*ck concealed.  Show up in full BDU with an M16 over your shoulder.

[SignOfZeta]

Put the dicks away, guys.

[Jibbajaba]

And it's in my area.  Great.  Some people should just be put to sleep.

[EvilEvoIX]

Scary stuff.  Gotta be careful in your Craigslist endeavors especially in high price items.  Feel out the seller and see if they know what they are talking about.

Lol, there is open carry too (which requires no permit), but I think concealed carry in an area (especially near me) makes people at least double-think doing anything premeditated.

Wow, I don't live far from that guy.  We need to mail him some poop wrapped in Obey wrapping paper.

Yeah!  Or we could leave the head of a caveman in his bed!
