I sent this guy a e mail on this car.
Its in the Mpls craigslist.

http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/ctd/1007670977.html


Here is the e-mail I recived.

First of all, I would like to address any of your questions, and that's why I would like to start with a few details about my car. The car has only 4,801 miles with clean title. Lastly, I need to inform you that my current location is Long Beach, NY now and the car will be shipped from here. Shipping will be done via Dependable Auto Shippers Company and it will take no more then 2-7 working days (depending on your exact location). If you have any questions or would like to see more photos, I will gladly provide them to you. The price is $5,000. I will consider any reasonable offer for this vehicle. The transaction will be made through eBay Solutions for our own protection. Get back to me if you are interested in the purchase!
I am waiting for your email.

Hummmm :rolleyes:
 
Wow... $18k and reserve not met... I would have taken that price all day long and been happy about it...
 
The e-bay car is in Homewood, IL.

The c-list scam says Long Beach, NY
Same car id.

Its a scam....the pics are copied from e-bay.
No way is he going to turn down 18 k then put it on c-list for 5k

Time to play him a little bit :D



I sent him this e-mail.


Antonio,

I have great intrest in your car, but I have some concerns.

Can you tell me more about eBay Solutions, and Dependable Auto Shippers.

I am also wondering how you would want to recive payment.
Hope its not sold.

Thanks, Kirk
 
yeah! I was looking around on c-list this morning for a set of cobra r wheels and saw this car in every major city from portland maine to portland oregon:rolleyes: Definatly a scam!!!
 
I think all of us should start spamin him with e-mail like we want to buy it.

:bowrofl: :bowrofl: :bowrofl: :bowrofl: :bowrofl: :gr_devil:
 
LOL...for him to have interest in scamming with a Mark VIII he must be from here on this thread or if not used to be until everyone hated him and chased him out...who knows, he might be reading this laughing thinking it's a joke......
 
Recived two e-mails

First this one...


So I need to complete this transaction no later than 31 January. Also the car right now is at the shipping company because someone committed that they will buy the car. I have made the arrangements for shipping, and since the 20th I don't have any reply from this person. All the papers are with the car at the shipping company in a big container and I don't have access to them. I forgot that probably someone will ask me about papers and I didn't make any copies. Sorry if this causes you any problems but the papers will come along with the car. I will send you the car, you test it and inspect it (10 days) and if the car is not suitable for you from any reason, your money will be fully refundable and I will take the car back on my cost.
the shipping to your address is free because I paid the shipping's fee and you don't have to pay anything for it. In 2-7 days you will have the car in front of your house. if you want to continue this deal please give me your accept along with your full name, phone# and shipping address and I will open a case with eBay and they will send you the invoice and guide you through the rest of the process.If you have any other questions please don't hesitate to mail me back.

Hope you understand and let me know if you still want to buy it. I have attached some photos...

If car meets reserve I will include the following items with original packaging The collectors Edition ingot collection with engraved VIN# that matches car, An original Collectors Edition 4 page brochure, Version#2 (go to www.markVIII.org ) go to home,markviii facts,collectors edition,sales brochures;EACH DEALER ONLY GOT ONE!!

3 mins later he sent me this.


I will try to provide the best assistance and guidance so we can both achieve a smooth and pleasant transaction. In order to complete the payment you will have to send the money by transfer to our eBay agent from New York (BECAUSE THE CAR IS THERE).
Here is how it will work:
1. First of all, I will need the following details from you: your info.
2. After I will receive the details from you, I will forward them to eBay Safe.
3. After they process your info, they will send us both invoices. The invoice will send you the details on how to make a refundable payment.
4. eBay will contact me and I will ship the car to you. After you receive the car you will have 10 days to test, verify and do whatever you need to the lincon. If you will buy, then I will receive the payment details from eBay so that I can pick up the money. If you wish to make the transaction, please send me the necessary info so that we can proceed.

Call the DAS shipper CALL TOLL-FREE 1-866-327-8060 see if car is there?

He is not Nigerian, spelling is too good as well as grammer.
 
a scam, how is he getting over on ebay safe or what ever,,, i dont get it can anyone explaiin
 
Lastly, I need to inform you that my current location is Long Beach, NY now and the car will be shipped from here.

Come on. Anyone from New York that can agree to meet this guy or get his real first/last name/address so we can have him prosecuted before he burns someone.

It is our duty as a Mark VIII organization to protect those of us who value this car and the people who drive them.

I know this all sounds like fun and games because you guys are a little savvier than the average bloke, but this guy needs to be stopped and punished.

Someone in NY, please help out. Don't we have a former cop living in Jersey that could help out?

Let's get this punk.
