"Ebay Motors Vehicle Protection Program "
Sellers that want to use "ebay motors" through craigslist automax etc. Almost lost $10,000 to a craigslist scam that wanted to use "Ebay Vehicle Protection Program" as a third party in the sale

I almost lost $10,000 to a scam that started on craigslist and tried to use "Ebay Vehicle Protection Program" as a third party protector in the sale.

It started when i saw a listing for a 2007 Ford F150 King Ranch truck for only $10,200 while the retail value for this truck is over $25,000 DO YOUR RESEARCH! It seemed too good to be true, so i clicked on the link for more photos which took me to a Craigslist AD Master page that contained lots of information and over 10 photos of the truck. It seemed like a real listing so i responded via email (the only option given for the add) saying i was very interested.

I recieved a response email right away saying that the truck was in great condition and that the woman was in a divorce, single mom, moving, needed house downpayment blah. Blah. The e mails all sounded very sincere.

The first RED FLAG was when she said that the truck and her were located in Alberta Canada but the posting off craigslist said it was in the Houston, TX area.
