I have no idea if this is the right topic to post under but I'm wondering if there is any reason it would be dangerous to give your address when making sales online.
I've sold a lot of items on Craigslist and now I'm selling an item and someone responded wanting me ship an item to the US once I receive his payment, the only reason I'm questioning doing so is that he seems too eager to get this info and mentions at least 3 times in his email please give me your address and his english is very poor. He already gave me the address to ship to but mentions he is not in the US right now and just wants the item shipped to his home while he is away as a gift for someone.
Can your name and address only be used in any sort of fraud by someone overseas?
