scam me ! on a CE

Wow. I wonder how many will fall for this.

Clue one is the e-mail added to pic. Often done on eBay so people dont go through the eBay system for messaging.
 
Hmmmm.... I actually wonder if the eBay one is a scam too? Probably not with the car fax copies, etc... but....
 
Googling that phone number comes up with a flagged craigslist post for a VW in Chicago and two adds for an Acura with the name Josh Cohn Sabados.

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.

Yes it is still for sale. I assume you read the description on craigs list? The photos and description are in fact my car but not my listing.(Apparently they copied my ebay listing ). I have received numerous emails and offers since my ebay listing expired,the highest offer prior to listing the ingots etc. is $25,000.00 . If you want to make an offer or speak to me, email me with your offer, and phone number if you want me to call you.( see attached photo of ingots etc.) If I do not sell it soon I may list it on ebay in 1-4 weeks,but as of now I have quite a few people interested in the car.
So it looks like he is trying to get $25,000 plus?
If anyone wants to deal with the owner here is his email: geharms@comcast.net <geharms@comcast.net>
This is too rich for my blood in this day and time.
 
e-mail I got tonight.

Ok, but if you want to continue this deal please give me your accept along with your full name, Phone#, 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.
Antonio
