Definitely a scam. As others have noted, it can be fun to engage
these people as long as you know what you're doing.

Related but still OT question: The local Craigslist has a bunch of
cars for sale at ridiculously low prices; a 2007 Toyota Corolla for
$2600, etc. What exactly are the people running these ads expecting
to get? How does this sort of scam work?
