Do You Give Coast Numbers Out On Checking On Scam Listings?

I had a buyer tell me he was going to verifie my add. I revived a text with a 5 did get # and he ask me to send that to him so he would know we were not a scam. He never showed up to buy the item. Now I feel I was scammed. He has my address and phone number. I now a bit freaked out. HELP ME!

Your question is hard to follow (and we're not Craigslist), but it seems your asking about any checking that Craigslist does on scams or suspected scams. Craigslist does none. Sorry.
