These people are foreign scam artists who find these huge gaping holes in our system and use them to make a ton of money. They are Con men and women who steal for a living, and who know how to take advantage of our human nature to jump at those apparent too good to be true super deals. The laws should be enforced with a vengence. If they are untouchable now because they are staying in the gray area of the law, then the laws should be changed. Convict 10-20 of these SOB's publicly for a felony and give them stiff fines and a five year mandatory sentence, and you'll see this problem disappear. Craigs List, Ebay, Etc., as parties continually getting a black eye from these criminals, should be leading the way to get this done. Until then, I will continue to complain to any and all who will listen.

Hey everybody,

These people are using another phone #

"Amanda" just called me wondering if I received the the eBay link in order to make the payment.

The bike is at the shipping company in Topeka KS sealed and ready for shipping. I have a contract with eBay so this deal must go through them. According with eBay you have 5 days from the time you receive the bike to inspect it and decide if you want to keep it or not. Here is how it will work:
First of all,I will need the following details from you: full name, full shipping address. After I have received these details from you, I will forward them to eBay. After they will process your info, they will send both of us invoices. On the invoice you will find all the instructions on how to complete this transaction. eBay will contact me and I will ship the bike to you. After you receive the bike you will have 5 days to test it, verify it and do whatever you want with it. If you are going buy it, then I will receive the payment details from eBay so that I can pick up the money.

All of us seem to want "Frank" to get caught.  So please read below on how to report scams or go to....

http://www.fightidentitytheft.com/how-to-report-scams.html

How to Report a Scam
What should you do when you get a scam email or end up on a scam website? We're going to teach you who to report the scam to, or how you can track down the scammers yourself and work to help shut down their scam-collecting ways, at least temporarily. We've seen scams targeting companies like eBay, Washington Mutual (Wamu), Wells Fargo, Amazon, Citibank, and PayPal.

You should contact the company involved in the scam immediately.

In other words, if you received a scam email about Wells Fargo, you should forward it to Wells Fargo.

Here is the contact info for some of the most targeted companies:

Best Buy bestbuysecurityinfo@postfuture.com
Citi emailspoof@citigroup.com
EarthLink fraud@corp.earthlink.net
eBay spoof@ebay.com
PayPal spoof@paypal.com
Washington Mutual spoof@wamu.com
Wells Fargo Contact Us Page

Also consider forwarding the email to spam@uce.gov. The U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) will place your email in a database and use the combined information to track down and prosecute the scammer/spammers.

You can also report the scam to the Internet Fraud Complaint Center. This site is a partnership between the FBI and the National White Collar Crime Center.

WOW!  what a trip!  we responded to this same ad and were a little weary when we were told shipping would be paid on such a low price.  thank goodness we checked the number.  thanks to everyone for
posting your complaint, this really helped us from getting scammed!  Frank You are a scumbag!

This is what I got.  The ad was off of craigslist 30 minutes after I sent the initial email.

I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. I can totally understand your wanting to get rid of this vehicle. Thank-you for raising such a wonderful son who would risk his life to keep us all free. God Bless. We are in Broward County. Where exactly is the RV? We'd like to take a look at it maybe this weekend and if it's all that we think it is, maybe we can work something out. Please let me know something when you can. Also, please provide a link to your eBay auction, just in case I can't find it when I look for it.

Thanks!

My name is Julie, I am emailing you regarding the Seadoos Bombardier that I have for sale.
The jet skies are in pristine condition, never got any repairs and they have no problems with the engine. They have been used only in fresh water ,the titles are clear and free of any liens or loans ,one has 50 hours and the other one 75 and the price is only $2,600,which includes the trailer and all the gear!
I'm selling my son's jet skies, who died in Iraq four months ago and I want to sell them asap because the sight of them hurts too much. Put yourself in my shoes and you'll do the same...
The payment will be made through eBay protection program and only after you will receive the jet skies, I will receive the payment.Below you can find a link with some pictures.
I will wait your email(if you are interested in buying them) very soon,also you can call my husband Frank at : 785-783-5474.

Thank you,

I to replied to the quad ad thinking it might be someone down on their luck and needing quick cash. When they replied back and I read it, I had to laugh but was also mad at what they are doing. I would slit their throats if I ever got my hands on them. They are of for foreign decent. I call him at least 100 times a day to make his scam a little harder to complete. Everyone should call him non-stop. Screw this piece of crap. I really feel for the people that get taken on this deal.

Awesome I almost fell for it as well. Wonder if there is anything we can do other than complain. I want some consequences for there actions to be had lol.
