Mark you would be surprised people who send $1,500 cash as a down payment to a post office Box on a Chevelle ad such as this.....I am serious these people (scammers) are making thousands of dollars doing this crap....

and you want to know how they get by with it or away with it should I say...

Greed.!!!....you got people out here that are so Greedy all they can see is the Steal they are looking at getting instead of how big of a scam it is like you and I see it...

I remember someone proved a point at peoples Greed and posted a ad in the local news paper and it read as follows...
" LAST CHANCE !" PLEASE SEND $1.00 TO PO BOX 5555 GREER S.C. 29635
You would not believe the $1.00 bills that rolled in... :shock:

Mark

yeah Mark always that chance if you chittin sombody on the other end No Doubt...but the sad fact is I personally have seen these type of ads posted on RJ and E-bay the last 8 years which tells me some people are falling for this scam somewhere down the line...

so with that said I guess if someone is stupid enough to send someone 5k or $1,500 for a 50k-60k car then I guess the same type person would be stupid enough to go Knock on a strangers door .. :shock: .......It all makes sense, doesnt it ?

I did get a reply from the guy, typical scam, I am out of the country taking care of my mother, here is his reply

Hello,


Now I am not in the town. I'm in London , Ontario (Canada) and I have been very busy. Anyway , thank you for your interest in buying my 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS396. The car is located in Dallas , USA right now and has US papers. Why is the price so low? My mother is terribly sick and the doctor is asking for about $9,500 before any operation can start because she has breast cancer and one of her breast have to be cut off to prevent the other from being infected since it has already been in a critical condition . So I had to move out of USA to be with her in Canada at the St Joseph's Health Care .So i need to sell this car at this price $9,999 because i want to sell it fast. My mother life is preferable than a car. It does matter how much i bought the car. So all that I want to do now is to sell the car at this price,($9,999) .The title is clean and you will have absolutely no problems to register the car .


I want this transaction to go smoothly enough as I am caught in the middle of some very important events and have little time at my disposal. The car is like new, in perfect conditions , accident free , no scratches , no special marks , no need for additional repairs what so ever.. a genuine road runner ready to be yours, but only if you shall understand and you won't make me loose time as it has already happened to me . The car is exactly as shown in the pictures .
I have a contract with Yahoo Finance so this deal must go through them. According to Yahoo Finance you have 5 days from the time you receive the car to inspect it and decide if you want to keep it or not.


Here is how it will work:


1.First of all I will need the following details from you:
- Full Name
- Full Shipping Address
- Working Phone#


2. After I will receive the details from you, I will forward them to Yahoo Finance .
3. After they will process your info, they will send us both invoices. The invoice will send you the details on how to make a refundable payment.
4. You will send the payment to Yahoo Finance . They will hold in trust the funds and advise me to ship to your address.
5. Yahoo Finance will contact me and I will ship the car to you. After you receive the car you will have 5 days to test, verify and do whatever you need to the car..
6. If you decide to keep the car you will contact yahoo and confirm that you will keep it and they will release me the money
7. If you will decide that you will not buy the car, Yahoo Finance will refund the money and I will have the shipping company come pick up my car. If you wish to make the transaction, please send me the necessary info so that we can proceed.
I look forward to hear from you.
Thank you!


Yahoo finance, what a joke :!: :roll:
