My son just got had by this same party. Guy had heavy accent (the alleged eBay financial representative) AND the woman had the same exact story...only the son that died was 22, the car was a 2001 Lexus AND "she" was going by the name Sandra M. Brown (
[email protected] 814-514-4926). eBay guy (David supposedly) used the same email address you mentioned and WAS using the same phone number (402-509-7036). He hung up on my son when he adamantly tried cancelling the transaction and now calls aren't going through. I suspect he moved on to a new phone and phone number. Not sure if multiple people are actually even involved OR if it's all the same person. Regardless, they are a bunch of scammers. I'm making it my mission to track this joker down though.
Sorry for everyone else who got taken by this fraud!
