I'm sure it's a scam of some sort, but I wonder what their angle is? By asking for your paypal info, all they're really asking for is an email address.
So I guess it must be just to put you on a spam list. Seems like a lot of work to get email addresses.
Anyway, you obviously don't want to use your own email address in a CL post. People can send you questions and such via the CL email address that forwards to your box.
Then if you're going to respond, be aware that you're responding with your own email address in the "from" line, so I always try to be sure it looks like a legitimate inquiry.
I'm not too keen on posting my phone number up front.
