Hi, I am getting back to you regarding the 64GB 4G, iPad3 from Craigslist
My name is Jessica and I am now in Vancouver, BC, Canada.
The ipad is still available and I hope you are still interested.
I am selling the ipad for $350 US. I have attached some pictures with the ipad to this email.
The ipad is new.
Included in the $350 price is everything that came with the ipad as new and also the warranty papers.
I tried to be as thorough as I could with the presentation so you can have all the info if you decide to go ahead and buy it. So what do you think? Do you want my ipad?
Thanks,
Jessica

I wish I would of done more research about this and found this sight. I am going to try to attempt calling western union about this scam to a least worn customers about this scam when making a money transfer to them and I am going to try and get a hold of the real interparcel and tell them they are using false info of there site.
I hope this helps others in the near future.
