TRI-CITIES, Wash. -- A new scam is targeting people who sell things on Craigslist.
Police warn you not to reply to anyone called Tina Ansa Jones. The false person is interested in buying furniture from people out of their homes or renting open rooms.
Craigslist says Jones is asking for people's addresses and personal info. She also tells people she wants to do a background check on them.
If you get an email from Jones, it's best to delete it.

Tina Ansa Jones mailed a check to my son,claiming she was deaf and could only do business by text, for twice as much as the item she bought and told my son to wire the difference to the shippers that would be picking up the item she bought and move it to Michigan. Â Scaaaaaaam! Â Advised him to call the Cops! Be careful out there...
I'm in Florida and she just answered my ad for a roommate with those exact words
