as it refers to the same SCAM.

Same situation- answered an ad on Craig's list, received the following email message:
Hi  ,

Thank you for contacting me regarding my car. I am a 25 years old single mom with 2 kids. I am now in a divorce with my ex and i am in desperate need of money to pay the mortgage on my house.
First of all I want to tell you that the car is in perfect condition, and the price includes all the shipping costs and insurance so you will not have to pay any extra charges if you can't come to Illinois to make the deal.
My brother works at the shipping company and he has 1 transportation per year for free so the shipping will be free.

Mileage: 32,899 miles

Year 2004 . The car has a Clean Tittle which will come along with it.
I am in Chicago, IL. The car is with me here and is in a perfect condition.
It's a great car, I am devastated that I have to sell it but i really need the money to pay my mortgage unless i'll lose my house, so I decided to sell it for $3900.
Tell me if there is anything else you would like to know about the car.

Thank you for the interest you have shown in purchasing the car.
Please reply,
Regards !

Anette

She then sent me the following phone number: 267 940-7892 (which I will make a seperate post about. and this message:

I decided that the payment should be completed using Ebay security because i want to
take this opportunity to assure you that this deal is 100% LEGIT but you must know that in
this way eBay will require you to send a ($ 3.900) prior shipping  and they will have to
verify me and the car  and you as well before we can close this deal through their service.
Your money will be keep by eBay agent until you will receive the car  and send them the
confirmation that you are satisfied with the product received. In case you don't want to
keep the car all you will have to do is to ask them for a refund and you will be totally
refunded in 2 days.REMEMBER: i will take care of the shipping !

P.S. You must know that if you decide to buy the car i will need your full name and shipping
address as soon as possible in order to send your details to the shipping company and to ebay
agent to make the arrangements for shipping.
Thanks !


I've reported to Craig's list and Ebay
Just wanted to let everyone know.  
The old adage: If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is!

I explained that I reported to Craig's List Fraud Protection and she told me I could come and pick the car up, sent an address to my e-mail and everything.

Its very funny but yes the same scenario as you had too. About the single mom, 25 two kids divorce etc. Then the e-bay secure thing too which I googled and it came up with a scam thing that explained everything she is saying about the verification process and that it is all a fraud, e-bay doesn't do that. But the address I got was Old Tappan, NJ

As I continue to read the write up Bob wrote, I find more discrepancies She is now using the name Elizabeth Munson and the mileage this time was 31k
