LOL! you had to ask??? haha

Need proof of the scam?? heres what one buyer on e-bay wrote.
heres the link http://tinyurl.com/7jea7

I think there are two more of these scams on ebay at the mo, both are for porsche 911s, which are advertised at an unbelievably low 'buy it now' price of £9000.

I e-mail both e-bay sellers, I had a reply from one:

Hello there and thanks for your interest.
I'm very glad that you like my car and I can only say that you have good
taste about cars! The price I want to obtain for it is £9,000 (this price
includes shippment and insurance charges). In order to eliminate any
concerns I can accept a deposit of £ 3,000. After you will make the deposit
then just forward the transfer details to Square Trade so they can check the
deposit, and only after receiving and inspecting the car you will send me
the remaining balance.

The car is like new, completely working, low miles, 1998 PORSCHE 911 model.
It has always been garage kept. It is an UK model with UK specs (RHD) and it is still registered there and you will have no problem with registration.
Shipping will be done via TNT Carrier from Bratislava, Slovakia and it will
take no more then 4 days for the car to arrive at the delivery location. I
am in the Military and TNT will manage me a low price for shipping and if
you will pay the money transfer taxes wich will be at £ 150, I will pay for
the shipping fees. I will arrange for you not to pay any duties when the car
will pass through customs. In this way the car will be delivered to your
home address.
Unfortunately I wasn't able to register the car here because the car is an
RHD so I decided to sell it to someone back in UK. If you want to have it
registered here have to start an individual procedure for the vehicle
through the Government, pass several technical tests and make a lot of
changes to the car which are expensive they told me. This is why I am
selling the car so cheap.
This is a overseas purchase and I would like to use a third party for this
transaction as I want a smooth and safe transaction. We will use Square
Trade, I have completed a lot of successful deals using them. I have a
Purchase Protection Account for US $20,000 and I assume you know what this means. If this is your first time using Square Trade here are their terms:if you will not receive the car exactly as advertised or you won't receive it in 15 days since you made the payment, Square Trade will refund you from my account.
If you agree with these terms, please reply with your full name, home and
shipping address in your next email so I can register the transaction with
Square Trade asap.
Regards,

As soon as i received this reply, the car disappeared of e-bay.

The other one is still there ref 4558230937

Shame really would be nice having a £50k car for £9k

It's amazing how these tools make their reply emails so obvious. You can tell what kind of people are doing this.

at least some people are fighting these scammers...

this one is a great read...

Tell him youre going to be in Holland and you want to meet him first. Sh(&, Ill do it. Or is he already in a cargo container ready to go...Believe it or not, this is actually BIG business for these guys...The Nigerian check dudes made a mint, and there is really NO way to get your money back...Lawyers, everyone are in on the deal...

Usd 9,900!I spent almost that on my mods!I am surprised people still fall for these scams?Too good to be true!The sellers first e-mail is pathetic!Who would sell their X5 "CHEAP" because they married some gorgeous Dutch girl?(Tempting!!!).Why didnt he sell the car in the USA for top Dollar before moving to Amsterdam?What is confusing about this guy is that he is always referring to Ebay????If his feedback is 100%,then this deal surely would make him 99%!Maybe his last deal at Ebay!!!!

This should be a classic ebay prank. So funny and the "powerbook" he sent him was hilarious. :bustingup

As mentioned earlier SCAM SCAM SCAM! I have my 4.4 from California here in Poland and its Bull that you can't get it registered. I have worked and lived in AMSterdam and there is a huge number of US manufactured cars brought into Holland and other European countries.

Only things that need to be changed during European homolagation are usually the headlight settings as US are higher than european.

Steer well clear!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thats a scam. EBAY has become a type of scam hangout in the past couple years. People hack accounts to use somebody elses rating. Whenever I buy anything on EBAY, its of an amount that I am prepaired to have stolen from me. So major purchases are out of the question. Just too many scammers now.

Also, a lot of stolen items get sold there too. So if anyone had anything identifiable stolen, check ebay.
