hi-I have the same situation like you.did  you lost your money? thank you sylwia

Same song and dance here in Michigan. Someone under the name Loreen Thomas posted an ad for cheap 04 Jeep Wrangler.

Broken English. Sketchy story. Brother with the DAS. Some story about needing money fast. Not how a typical person would respond to an inquiry. I requested the VIN number and scan of the title. Got a quick response with a fake VIN and story.

Thanks to google I did a search of the name and there's only one person with that name in the Detroit Area. And it's not that person.

o and by the way the story is exactly the same only this time he is pretending a mrried man and woman that lost their job and need to sell immediately did not wnat to provide a number he is getting smarter he is stating that he is Minot North Dakota and also in alaska title will come with the vehicle with all papers to register it when asked abt the number he said just well suposedly I was talking to a woman she stated tht they had just moved and that no phone at this time phone company will be out this week to fix it
RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN from this person google and research everything I did and saved myself a little over 5000.00 dollars if I cant meet you and buy in person then I DONT WANT IT be suspiscious of everything someone tells you it was posted as of 07/14/2012 and ws removed with hours of me responding has pics of the vehicle and all

I was looking for a car on craigslist and ran acroos this ad about this range rover 2003 in excellent condition it only has 30,000 and was being sold for 2500 and was ready to move forward received an email stating that they will be using ebay as the way to make the payments I looked up ebay and spoke to a rep who avised me not to do it on the other range rover she actually tried to convince me that she we wld be makin the transaction thru google that is not an option as well remember these are all competitor companies and one company will not process a payment for another and also once you moneygram or western union that is as good as giving cash call the fedearl trade commision and they will advise you as to how you can proceed even after I advised them that I would only purchase and that I had spoken to the authorities they still insisted that I make the transaction thur western union beware of VICTORIA SIEFERTV AND DEBRA SN ADREW JONATHON I called the number from the building in one of the photos and the advised me that he sold the car last year and it was a scam pay attention to the photos verify info in the photos BEWARE both of the range rovers were for 2500 2003 model one is green and one is white

Yep, I am in the middle of one of these right now. I looked this up to see if it was legit. I knew something seemed sketchy.

hello i have been writing to ye a gentleman who is in the us army and basically sounds silly but have started a realtionship kinda thru e-mail he is servin in afgan an asked me to write to the usmilitarybaseconsults@usa.com is this a real addy? or is it part of these scams????? am confused it was to request a telephone conversation an i had to anwser security questions about the man in question not myself!! as i wouldnt give out an personal info if asked anyway but do you think this is real? some friendss of mine told me to look at this website and now i feel a bit silly??

I JUST today got the same guy. 2002 Chevy Tahoe.


Hi,

Thanks for replying to my ad. I'm in a hurry to find a buyer because I have a family emergency and I need to sell it before 28 March. My name is Brian. I'm an Air Force Technical Sergeant stationed at an AF Base in Anchorage, Alaska. The SUV is here with me.

This 2002 Chevrolet Tahoe LT 4 Wheel Drive has 77,343 miles on it, Automatic, 5.3L V8, 3rd Seat, A/C, Cruise Control, Tow Package, Traction Control and more...It is in immaculate condition. The title is clear without any accidents, liens or loans. It is rust free, salt free and has a clean undercarriage.

Here you can find more pictures of the vehicle: http://s1263.photobucket.com/albums/ii633/tahoe2002forsale3rd/

The price is $2,400. If you want to buy this SUV I will take care of the delivery to your door (with an AF cargo plane to the nearest AF Base) and I will offer 5 days to inspect the vehicle and take it to your mechanic from the moment you receive it (and the option to accept or reject it), before I'll have your money. So if you need further information please get back to me as soon as possible.


I look forward to hearing from you.
Brian Halle Tech Sgt USAF

What a douche.

This guy is now posing as Alexander Thomas, leaving for Afganistan Feb 19, 2012 and has beautiful underpriced black Tacoma PU for sale.  I'm reporting him to CL.

I got one to from Brown, Pamela  on 2007 chevy k1500 tahoe and they stated son died car accident. http://www.use.com/097c18aca705490f6474

I'm the real Perry.. When i was stationed in England this was a huge issue the scammer would go on military websites and take the names of troops who may have been featured in a story or a photo.

Here is the facts with military and selling cars

we cannot just ship a car using a military aircraft, thats fraud and impossible. whenever we do get stationed overseas our cars are shipped by civilian contractor by boat... so it being shipped on a plane is bull...

and 99% of the time we will not sell our cars on craiglist especially if we are overseas. we have our own resale lot on base and like to sell our cars to other military personnel to keep ourselves from getting scammed.

also a service member will never just say hey I'm in the military or say his rank (most of the time these scammers are wrong with rank) to civilians or when they are selling something online to a civilians.


So bottom line if a service member is selling his car on craiglist and he's talking about shipping it from overseas, or he constantly reminds you he is in the military, it's a scam.

Same song and dance here too.... from a Randy Spires. Luckily, I am familiar enough with eBay to know that what he was telling us was a crock of BS! It is however very disappointing that these creeps have been able to continue this for so long! It is also frustrating because you never know who you can trust anymore. Be sure to do LOTS of research before you fall victim to one of their schemes. Luckily, we did our due diligence and very dissapointed that we won't be getting a VW Bus!  Not this one anyway. ;-)

Hello,

dam i was so excited to find a car like this at this price but i called western union and asked what they thought and right away they said it was a scam.. so i googled the name and adress he gave me which brought me to this website so i could confirm it was a scam..... man that was a close one

Carter -

The problem with Pete contacting eBay is that eBay never sent any emails - nor was the car listed on eBay.

The scammer sent fake emails and Pete never checked it out.

No one ever sells a nice car for that cheap a price and only a fool would wire money to someone and never check out the car first.

Peaches,
did you get the car?  from this william brownell?  I sent this person from ebay motors Jessica mae Jamison the money

KenTheSalilor,
I have sent money to the ebay motor inc to a Jessica Mae Jamison in the amount of $4,840.00 this month March 26,2011 for the same car the 2005 Toyota Camry.  Did you get the car from the ebay motor company in San Jose, ca?  I recieved the same messasge from this guy saying he is leaving to Afganistan on March 28,2011.

I`m located in Great Falls,MT (the bike is here with me) right now because i got a new job here,the thing is i`m very busy and i don`t have time to stay and meet with all my potential buyers, that is why i gave to a shipping company that will ship it to the next owner(on my cost). I will make the deal only to eBay. I am a member of the eBay buyer protection program and using this service you will get a 10 days testing period after delivery. During that 10 days testing period I will not be getting any money. I need to know if you are interested in buying it so I can ask eBay to send you the details on how this works. If interested please include in your next email your contact info for eBay ( full name,  full address ) so we can get things started.
