This eBay seller, 1342fc was fraudulently advertising a 1971 Ford Mustang Mach 1 with 429 motor on eBay recently June. He had a price to end auction of $17,900 and to contact him about it. Said it was his fathers car that had died recently and did not know much about it. Wanted to set up a sale outside of eBay using VPP buyers protection service. Ebay only offers buyers protection when item is sold through eBay.
Sent phoney emails looking official through VPP and eBay with this reply header: "eBay". Asked for a wire transfer to Capitol One bank in NY, NY under name of Costelo Crippa acct # 7014117606 routing #021407912. Had a reference fax number of (831) 480-5773 which is out of Santa Cruz, CA
Do not do any business with this seller all fraud as of recently. They ended auction early saying " I was their buyer" where I did not agree to complete any deal.
EBay fraud has been notified as well as law enforcement. If you have been a victim, report though eBay and local police, Capitol One Fraud Dept 866) 399-8973.
