Scam via johnturkot.99@msn.com

Hello,
My car is in excellent condition, I have a clean and clear title and. All the maintenance done on a regular basis and I have all service records for it.
The car is accident-free, it doesn’t have any dents, chips or scratches and the interior is great, never smoked in.
I’m selling it for only $23,330 (and the price is negotiable) because I divorced couple months ago, my company is running apart and if I’m not come up with some cash in 17 days from now I will lose my house.
I’m leaving in 4 days (I’m going on a business trip to China) but if you want to buy it, I will ship it directly to your home address for free.
By the time I’m leaving, the car will be ready. And, I will give you a 7 days inspection period. If the car is not as described, it will be shipped back to me, no questions asked.
The financial part in this transaction will be completed thru ebay. If you used them before, please reply with your full name, shipping address and phone number and we will get the ball rolling.
If you didn’t, let me know and I will explain how the process works.
Regards!
Robert

Hey Mike,

The car is still registered in NY but I had it shipped at one point to a seller in TX but while the car was on it’s way he told me that his loan wasn’t approved and he would no longer be buying the car. So, if you are still interested in proceeding here’s what we can do.
At the moment, the vehicle with proper documentation including title and keys is in a storage facility in TX and I will ship it to your address at my expense.
The financial part of our transaction is going through eBay’s Purchase Protection Program and here are the steps:
- I need your full name, shipping address and phone#
- I will forward this information to eBay’s purchase protection department and they will start our transaction
- eBay sends you the invoice with payment details for our transaction
- payment must be sent through Bank Wire Transfer to an eBay Vehicle Purchase Protection bank account managed by one of their transaction officers.
- after they secure the payment in their account, they will notify me and I will start shipping. Shipping will take no more than 7 days depending on your location
- after you receive the vehicle you will have another 5 days to inspect it.
- when the inspection period ends, eBay contacts you and if there are any issues with the car, they will fully refund you within 3 business days and the car will be shipped back at my expense. If all is good with the car, which I’m sure it will be, they will assist you with the title transfer and release the payment to me.
If you agree with these terms, please send me your full name, shipping address and phone number, in order to start the transaction!

Thank you,
Andrew
