		<description>Luckily I looked up &quot;craigslist scams&quot; and found this website! The post above looks SO crazily similar...
Here&#039;s my scamming story:

Hello ,

Thanks for being interested in buying my 2006 Honda Accord EX ,automatic transmission,white,VIN # 1HGCM66546A034647.Only 19,007 miles, beautiful condition in and out. Paint shines ,zero dings/dents,no accident. Non-smoker,always garaged and covered. It comes with all the documents needed for registration and clear title.
The vehicle is located in Columbia,SC and will be shipped from there.The price that I&#039;m asking for the vehicle is US $ 2,900.
I have recently moved to Portugal with my job and my family. I was hoping to take the vehicle here but when I found out how much shipping and registration would be I&#039;ve changed my mind. I want to sell it in US because is located and still registered there.
I want to take this opportunity to assure you that this deal is 100% legitimate,the financial part of this deal will be manage by a third party.So if you decide to buy my vehicle or need further information please get back to me as soon as possible.
I look forward to hear back from you soon.
Thank you and have a great day,

I ALMOST FELL FOR THIS SCAM TOO UNTIL I WANTED TO GO BACK AND LOOK AT THE CAR AGAIN AND IT WAS REMOVED FROM CRAIGSLIST. I GOOGLED IT TO SEE IF SHE PLACED THE AD SOMEWHERE ELSE AND THIS SITE POPPED UP. I WASN&#039;T GOING TO SEND MY MONEY UNLESS I GOT THE CAR ANYWAY BUT IT HELPED ME TO STOP WASTING MY TIME WITH THIS PERSON. I ALSO HAD ANOTHER PROSPECTIVE SELLER WHO IS A SCAMMER WITH THE SAME KIND OF EMAIL...SO CALLED EBAY PROTECTION. I&#039;M GOING TO POST IT ON HERE.</description>

		<description>I emailed about the car, and replied with the following...

&quot;Oh what luck! I&#039;m in Fairfax all this week, email me the address and I&#039;ll come and pick it up tomorrow!&quot;

After that. I never got an email back.</description>

		<description>Actually. Here’s what she replied with when we told her we wanted to come pick the car up in person and drive it home cash in hand.
 
&quot;Hello again,

The vehicle is still available for sale and the asking price is US $ 2,900.The price includes the shipping and delivery charges to your home address.The transaction will be fully under eBay&#039;s surveillance, giving us both security and insurance that nothing will go wrong. They will be the 3rd, objective party involved in the transaction. This way you will actually pay for the vehicle after you will receive and test it, because eBay will hold the funds and release it to me only after you accept and confirm the delivery.After the vehicle reaches your address you will have 5 days to test it. Within this period you have to decide if you purchase it or not. If you decide to take it you will have to contact eBay and let them know that, so they can release the payment to me. If you won&#039;t like it you will have to ship it back to me within the 5 days and eBay will refund you. The shipping back will be done on my own expense, but I am sure this will not be the case. 
If you decide to buy the vehicle please provide me me your full name and the address where you want the vehicle to be delivered and I will initiate the transaction with eBay. You will receive all the transaction details from them.
Looking forward to doing business!
Regards,

Pamela&quot;

Once again, thanks for the heads up. Be Aware</description>
