"Country" is his handle 910-444-5648 This number has popped up in these threads before.
"I will buy it, I will send a check and after it clears through your bank, EMS will pick up, hope is fine ? I will pay for shipping - Sent from my iPhone"
I responded and said I preferred PayPal (which I do).

Yes,I don't do any dealings where the buyer says he will arrange pick up!No third parties if you can't deal directly with the buyer it's a scam!

Thanks for the heads up. I got a message wanting me to text him pictures of a bow listed on classified.

Tell him to mail you cash. Once the bank assures you it's good tell him it will be on the front porch and it can be picked up any time.

Keep your bow and give the check to the police

Let us know what happens whitefeather. Don't give up your bow till the check is cleared by a bank. Even if it does, I think the bank can still come after you when the check doesn't get covered on the buyer's end.

I heard from country too. How about SteveSpencer? Has anyone heard from him? I revived a PM from him yesterday asking me to call him about a bow I was selling. The technique is different but again no history when I search his handle. Be careful.
