Relpy from the scammer “John Collins” john.collins668@gmail.com
First of all I’m very glad that you like my car. It runs and looks great. It has no hidden flaws, no dents, no leaks and it hasn’t been involved in any crashes. I have its clear title in hand. I serve the USAF and I’m stationed at Andersen Air Force Base in Guam. I won’t be able to leave the base until October, so I will have the car shipped to you at my expense because I benefit of various discounts.
I will pay the shipping fees and the insurance of the car.
All documents will be provided to you along with the car including the bill of sale under your name, title, service records …
The reason I’m selling the car is of a personal nature and has nothing to do with the car at all.
I’m a serious seller and I prefer to deal only with a serious buyer that understands my situation.
The final price is $2.900
Please reply if you’re interested and I’ll get back with more details of the car, more pictures and the VIN.
Looking forward to hearing from you,
V/R
John Collins, TSgt, USAF
