Craigslist, Ebay and other online buying/selling scams.

Runs ads on Craigslist in various cities selling a desirable collector car at a low price due to husband's recent death. Claims to have now moved to Westport, PA. Wants to complete deal on eBay Motors, though car is not listed on Ebay. Some kind of scam to get Ebay gift cards.

Response to inquiries is as follows:

I'm selling it at this price of $5,800 because my husband died 2 months ago (he had a heart attack) and it brings me bad memories and that's the reason I want to sell it a.s.a.p. No damage or hidden defects. It is in immaculate condition, meticulously maintained... I have a clear title, without liens or loans on it, under my name. Me and my son decided to sell the house and we moved to my parents house in Westport, PA trying to start a new life. We need to meet up to my parents place or I can arrange delivery - it will cost the gas money.

I want to use eBay Motors services (5 days of testing prior purchase) for the safety of both of us so if you’re interested in purchasing, please provide me your full name for the bill of sale, your full address and a phone number so I can notify eBay that you're selected as my possible buyer and they will contact you to explain the entire procedure.

I look forward to hear from you!
