Here's the email I got, from the following address: [email protected] Hello,

My 2006 Acura TL is still for sale.It has 117,000 miles Auto, clear title. The price was reduced at $1,500 as I need to sell it before November 26 th , when I'll be leaving with my unit Brigade Combat Team back to South Korea replacing the troops scheduled to come home. The deal includes free delivery as you may know we can ship a car/bike/etc from home to the base and back one time in a year for free. The vehicle will arrive at your address in 2 days so my presence it's not necessary cause I have everything arranged with eBay . You will have 5 days testing period before I receive any money and if by any reason you find something you don't like about, you can send it back on my expense and you will receive a full refund of your money. It is located in Omaha,Nebraska

If you're interested in purchasing it, all I need from you is your full name,phone# and shipping address and eBay will contact you shortly after I forward them your contact details. For more pictures pls click to link:http: http://imgur.com/a/K5YqY
God Bless!


What would YOU DO?????

Thanks,
Sean

I would ignore this emails as it is a common Craigslist scam where the email from "eBay" will be spoofed to appear that it originated from the legitimate eBay. If the scammer was really using eBay the car would be listed on eBay.

Never purchase a used vehicle from craigslist without in person inspection first.

It is ALWAYS a scam
If the pet seller or shipper asks for money to be sent via Western Union, Money Gram, any brand of gift card. Walmart To Walmart , Zelle , PayPal friends and family option, or mentions Cameroon

Same scam posted here >> viewtopic.php?f=6&p=310897

Changes are vehicle, names and email address. Earlier they wanted to scam by using a fake Amazon email.

Please buy in person so you can view it, test drive and have your mechanic look it over.

Please contacta moferatorstor if you have a question or information about this post.



Please do not tell the scammer he is posted here.

The email from the fake eBay asking for the payment.

email address used by the fake eBay. [email protected]

Seller

Name: Mendez Adriana
Address: 5122 Capitol Ave
City: Omaha
State: NE
Zip: 68132
Country: United States

The request for payment. eBay will never ask for a payment via a Prepaid Visa. Once you give the card information to the scammers then your money is gone forever.
Payment must be completed using OneVanilla Prepaid Visa Service. OneVanilla Prepaid Visa service is an easy and convenient way to send money to where you need it. Through OneVanilla Prepaid Visa services we can guarantee you 100% protection and insurance in this transaction. eBay will secure the payment until the buyer receives, inspects and accepts the vehicle. Or, if it will be the case, eBay will refund the payment to the buyer.
In order to submit the payment for your product please go with cash to CVS/Pharmacy, Dollar General, 7-Eleven, Rite Aid , store and pick up aOneVanilla Prepaid Visa from prepaid product or gift voucher section and take it to the register. You can add cash to the OneVanilla Prepaid Visa card up to $500 so buy as many you need to cover your purchase price. For the purchase you need to buy 3 (Three) OneVanilla Prepaid Visa cards of $500.00 each with the total amount.
