Craigslist Potential Robbery Scam involving Pinball Machine- WARNING

There has been 2 sepatate incidents, one in Florida, one in California, involving an ad for a Medieval Madness pinball machine for $3K, the forum member made voice contact with the "seller" and was led to a home only to be left high and dry.. It is believed that this was a robbery setup based on the information in the thread.

Here's a link to the Florida Arcade Collectors thread:

I enjoyed the read on the FAF especially this comment.
"Chris wore his Police shirt? If somebody came to my door with a shirt with Sting and Andy Summers on it, I'd be scared too!" LMAO! :D
