Hi,
Thank you for your interest in buying my 2003 Sea Ray 260 Sundancer. Is in showroom condition, no mechanical problems, never involved in any type of accident and it has 264 hours. It has a clear title, it comes with 8 life jackets, trailer and the price is $5,999.00
The reason why I'm selling it so cheap , is because of my recent divorce, now I had to move with my job that`s why I have to sell it. I gave the boat to Google Wallet who will deliver it to the next owner.
The transaction will be made through Google Wallet for our own safety because I'm out of town with my job for another 3 weeks and I can't take care of this. The best part about this is that you'll get 5 days for inspection for free with no further obligation or fees.

If you're interested in purchasing it just email me your full name, full address and phone # so that I can initiate the deal through Google Wallet and they will contact you to explain the procedure.
Waiting for your reply,


It seems to be a new name and email id. That's why could not find anything on goggle search. I am now trying to throw her own game back at her.

I received an email just like this, she or he is too stupid to even change the wording, it is the exact same except for a different car. The first email I received is as follows:

Thank you for your interest in buying my vehicle. My 1985 Mercedes-Benz 300-Series has 182,500 original kms. It is in perfect condition, no need for additional repairs, no scratches, dings, rust, special marks whatsoever. The interior looks great. It runs like new and all services are up to date. Also, I need to mention that it was never involved in any accidents.
The price is $2,675 (non-negotiable). Because of my divorce settlement, I own this vehicle and I don`t need it because I have another vehicle so I'm trying to sell it as soon as possible. I gave the vehicle to Google Wallet who will deliver it to the next owner. The transaction will be made through Google Wallet for our own safety because I'm out of town with my job for another 3 weeks and I can't take care of this. The best part about this is that you'll get 5 days for inspection for free with no further obligation or fees.

If you're interested in purchasing it just email me your full name, full address and phone # so that I can initiate the deal through Google Wallet and they will contact you to explain the procedure.

I can send more pics.
Thanks!

Welcome to Scamwarners almostgotGOT,

Did the scammer use the same email address with you or a new one? By posting the email address it may help someone who is doing searches by email addresses. Your warning could help someone else.

Thank you for the update.

I received this email this morning after messaging her about her car for sale:

Hi,

Thank you for your interest in buying my vehicle. My 2005 Mazda Mazda3 Special Edition has 90,014 original kms, automatic transmission. It is in perfect condition, no need for additional repairs, no scratches, dings, rust, special marks whatsoever. The interior looks great. It runs like new and all services are up to date. Also, I need to mention that it was never involved in any accidents.

The price is $2,100 (non-negotiable). Because of my divorce settlement, I own this vehicle and I don`t need it because I have another vehicle so I'm trying to sell it as soon as possible.
