It all started me asking the person if the car was still there and this is what the person email me back
"My name is Lourdes Clark and Im emailing you regarding the 2005 Toyota Camry I have for sale. It was always garaged and never smoked in. Never been damaged. It has no scratches, dents or something like that. No mechanical problems, no accidents. Clean title in hand. It does not need anything additional to function, has only 114,696 miles, VIN: 4T1BE30K05U981486, automatic transmission, 4 Cylinder, 2.4 L engine My asking price for this car is $2,400. Here are the pictures with the car : http://www.use.com/f2c20d66e05d01cf8643 . Just let me know if you are still interested and where are you located. Thank you,Lourdes."
I fell for it for awhile and i got interested and after "she" asked me if i had $1000 and i said yes after that "she" send me this
lourdes clark lourdesjkc4@gmail.com May 9 (12 days ago)to me Im currently located in San Antonio TX, because I got a new job here and the car is here with me. The car is in perfect condition and not has any mechanical or electrical problems. The car was my husband`s as he loved it very much, but he did not enjoy it as he died in a IRAQ 7 month ago. It brings very bad memories to me, I want to get rid of it.
From the beginning you have to know that I prefer the payment to be done using Autotrader services. We will use a safe payment method because I am affiliated at Autotrader and I have a purchase protection account. I supposed to ship the car to other buyer but then he told me that he has a financial problem and is no longer interested. He already paid the shipping charges. So, the shipping is free.
I will take care of it and I will send the car with all the papers ( title, bill of sale, full service records, owners manual, books, etc ). You will have a 7 days inspection period after delivery. During that 7 days testing period I will not be able to get any money until you confirm to Autotrader that you are satisfied with the condition of the car. If you are a serious buyer, you have to email me your full name and full shipping address in order to open a case with Autotrader. They will contact you and give you more details about terms, buyer protection, payment instructions, shipping, invoice, etc. I await your email with the requested details so we can move forward. Thank you,Lourdes.
So i felt bad for the person and I am currently looking for a car and i thought hey i should send the money and see what happen and after that they told me that they had started the outotrader account with me. Me buying my first car I got very excited! after awhile this woman email
