Posted as truck for sale on Craigs list. Received the following and got suspicious:
(As soon as the first thing is not about coming to see the vehicle or drive it but about money, alarms started to go off for me. So I looked up Jake Neumann and got lots of scam hits, and filing this report)
Thanks for your response, am currently looking for a gift for my son
preferably on a classified site and this makes me respond to your add.
However, am with the U. S Navy and currently deployed but i have an
agent who will handle the shipment to my son in Colorado. Moreso, i
need to be sure of its current condition and i can only pay you
through pay pal because its safe and secure for transaction like this
and since i will not be able to come for pick up, i guess that is the
only way i can do this. Do you have anything specific you can tell me
about it and i want you to send me an email stating that along with
your pay pal email address for me to make the payment but if you dont
have an account with pay pal, you can log on to www.paypal.com and
sign up within 5 mins. Hope to hear from you soon.
Jake
