I have a washer and drier for sale on Craig's List. I got this response and wanted to know what everyone thought about it.

Here is his e-mail:

Hello,
Thanks for the swift response, just to let you know that am okay with the condition and price of the item, am ready for its purchase and my form of payment will be by sending you Check via courier service next day delivery.
I'll be responsible for the pick-up and the pick up money will be included in your payment to avoid delay and to enable pick up company to schedule an appropriate time
for the pick-up at your location after check has been cashed,as i have other properties to be moved alongside with yours.
I would have really love to come for the viewing but due to my work frame that might not be possible,but if you have the pics,might want to have a good look. Please do get back to me with your full name and address including your cell and land number so i can make out payment.

Regards.


It seems a little strange so I wanted to get your opinion about it.

I still don't understand why scammers don't pay more attention to the construct of their communications. At least it makes them easy to spot.
