Howdy, Everyone beware of texts from this number 510-692-9890 or emails from Ethan Elliott. I had something I was working on and had decided to get rid of. I received a text from the above number and not recognizing the area code I looked it up white pages and found it was out in California. I live in Indiana. The message read Hello my names ethan kindly get back to me if the vehicle you posted on craigslist is still up for sale. Thanks. Already a little uneasy about the whole deal I went ahead and replied to the text that was still for sale. No response for the rest of the day. Then today around the same time as yesterday I get a long text saying
"I'm highly interested in it and m okay with price and condition. my mode of payment will be bank-certified check, you will receive the check within 1-2 business days, i will make arrangement with a private shipper to handle the pickup so i'll wait till you clear the check and have you cash at hand before i arrange for the pickup/shipment so get back with me with your Full Name, Contact address or Po."
Now at this point I decided to lookup the number on yahoo and found numerous posts of people with craigslist ads that this number had responded to and even that he had changed his number once or twice. One person had taken this guys word so far as to getting the check which was for more than the amount of the vehicle they were selling. At which time the buyer wanted them to take their share of it and send the rest to his shipper via western union.
SO BEWARE IF YOU HAVE STUFF POSTED ON CRAIGSLIST!!

Firm-joint calipers are adjusted approximately by the hands and then set to the feel of the work by tapping them on a metal surface. It is a common practice when opening calipers by this means to tap the top of the joint. It is better, if possible, to tap the inside of the legs, as repeated blo
