Samantha. [email protected] posted an ad on craigslist.com for a Dodge truck for $1900.00. The deal sounded too good to be true... And it was. Here is a website with email scams that are just like hers. Http://forums. Ebay.com/db2/thread. Jspa? ThreadID=520186369&rw=true&anticache=1338773625093

Here are the emails sent from that scamming asshole.

Hello,

Thank you for your interest in purchasing 2003 Dodge Ram 2500 4x4, I am selling this vehicle because I am in the military and my unit will be sent back to Afghanistan. I don't want it to get old in my garage. The price is low because I need to sell it before June 05th. The vehicle is in pristine condition, no accident history, clear title, no dents or dings and no scratches. Always adult driven and garaged, never abused or raced and never smoked in. If you are interested, it's still available for sale and the price, as stated in the ad, is $1,900. I bought it when I was serving in Fort Belvoir, VA (the truck is still there) and in case it gets sold I will take care of delivery. Let me know if you are interested, email back.

Transmission: Automatic
Fuel type: Diesel
Interior color: Black
Exterior color: White
Mileage: 154,678
Engine: 6 - Cyl

Thank you!
Corporal Samantha Broen

Hi again,

Right now I'm in a military base. We are training, getting ready for Afghanistan. I am only allowed to check my email twice a day. We have to stick to e-mail for now. Hope you can understand. Like I already said, the delivery process will be managed by me. I think I can have it there at your home address within 2-3 working days. It will come with a clear title and reg. I am a member of the eBay buyer protection program and using this service you will get a 5 days testing period after delivery. During that 5 days testing period I will not be getting any money. I need to know if you are interested so I can ask eBay to send you the details on this deal. If interested please include in your next email your contact info for eBay (full name, shipping address and phone number), so we can get the ball rolling.

Thank you.

Hi,
I sent your details to eBay, you will receive the invoice in a few minutes. I will wait for you to make the payment to eBay so the shipping company can begin the shipping process because the truck is already in their custody. When you`ll receive the 2003 Dodge Ram 2500 4x4 you`ll have 5 days of inspection like i told you before and in case you won`t like it you can send it back on my cost and eBay will send all your money back. I will also send all the paperwork and a bill of sale which will be already signed and notarized onto your name. If you decide to keep it all your have to do is to sign the transfer papers and announce eBay to release the funds to me.

P.S.: This reminder may end up in your "Spam E-Mail" or "Bulk" mail folder, depending on your service and mail account settings.
