Craig's list scam?

I had someone respond to an ad I have on Craig's list by asking me to check insurance rates for them by clicking on a link. Their excuse was that their dial-up connection was too slow...riiiiiight. Junk folder.

I like the ones that say "I will send you a check for 50 bucks over the price. my shipping comany will pick the item up from you in 2 weeks".

who is dumb enough to think these people are for real?
