Re: Ebay Scam
I came across a similar scam when I saw a 2005 Imprezza STI for $10,000 on cars.com. I emailed the person seeing this car should be atleast $25k. They came back saying they moved to the UK and the car was in storage at Ebay. They said they would accept western union. By then I knew it was obviously a fraud, so I asked if we could use an escrow system. They said that they would use some type of system but after looking it they only garrantted purchases up to $500. I then proceed to get the guy full hot saying how I wanted to use escrow.com. I then reported him to cars.com and ebay, neither of which emailed me back. I noticed that the adds were removed, so I emailed cars and ebay back asking why they removed them, they wouldn't answer me. I said that this was on there sites and I was going to complete the transaction (thinking they might tell me if they knew I was getting scammed) they said they weren't responsible for any transactions outside of their sites.... Be careful.
