[QUOTE="mstang67chic, post: 195025, member: 2459"] That's the thing....the ads aren't on Ebay. We're finding them on Autotrader, Craigslist...all types of places. It's just that most of them want payment through Paypal or Ebays secure pay...something along that lines. The thing that get's us though, is that most of these "people" will email us (after we inquire about the ad) with some "just this side of odd" story (just got a divorce, shipping off to Iraq, got a company car) and how they will pay for shipping and it's like pulling teeth to get information out of them. That alone tells me something is up but I was wondering if anyone knows about any scams. (One of them had horrendous grammar but perfect spelling. And spelling of big enough words that if your grammar is that bad, you probably can't spell some of these words. Reeeeally tripped my alarms on that one) [/QUOTE]
