I saw an ad for a vehicle on the Charlotte, North Carolina Craig's List. When I inquired about the vehicle, I was given the typical scam information and asked to handle the transaction through a "Secure Ebay site." I looked up her email address on line and found that she had SEVERAL vehicles for sale all over the United States, using the same M.O. The following is the actual email transcript from this seller:
Hello,
Thank you for your interest in buying my truck. My 2005 Ford F-150 Lariat 4X4 is in great shape, no engine problems, damages or hidden defects. It was always garaged and never smoked in. I`m a single mother with 2 children and I have to work very hard to maintain my family. I`m selling it so cheap because I have problems with money. The price is $4200.00. We will use eBay`s protection program for our safety. I just need your full name and address so I can open a case. (with no further obligation or fees). If you are still interested email me for picture and details.
My best wishes and I'm waiting your response so we can move forward with this deal.
This person is selling vehicles that don't exist and making unknown amounts of money off of the scamming of other people. She/he needs to be removed from all sites before someone loses a great deal of money.
He/she goes by the name Ashley Garvin [[email protected]]. Please type her email address into the Google Search Engine and see how many places, and unique vehicles, she has posted. It is unreal!
It's time we dealt with these rip offs once and for all.
