The Official funny stuff on Craigslist thread

[supraguy17]

It says in the description "$2,960" So I'd go ask them about it, then if they say something different, start yelling about false advertising or something.

When you see ads like these there scams so avoid them. People start asking about your billing and shipping info and say they'll do the transaction through money wire and then they'll ship the car, scammers.

This car was a tuners member and I remember a thread about people stealing his pictures for purposes of running scams like that.

What are you talking about? I don't see it

Edit - actually I think I see what you're talking about, towards bottom left near the intercooler it looks like the bumper got stretched out or something

Ive been ####ing with the scammer of that Craigslist ad, at least the one that posts in my San Diego classifieds.

Interested in the car ad you posted on craigslist. Where is the car located to test drive and do you have any interior/engine bay/passenger side/rear photos of the car as well?

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

Thanks for replying to my ad. I'm in a hurry to find a buyer because I have a family emergency and I need to sell it before March 27th. My name is Anne, I'm an Air Force Staff Sergeant stationed at the Elmendorf AF Base, Anchorage, Alaska. The vehicle is here with me, I haven't used it here the only reason I took it here is to sell it and have it delivered with an air cargo almost anywhere in US in just a few days.

It has no damage, no scratches or dents, no hidden defects. It is in immaculate condition, meticulously maintained and hasn't been involved in any accident...I do have the title, clear, under my name. Non-smoker. It is rust free, salt free and has a clean undercarriage.

This 1998 Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX has 103,073 miles, Red with Tan leather Interior, 4 wheel drive, 2.0 Liter, Gasoline.

Here you can find more pictures of the vehicle: https://picasaweb.google.com/117399394011371518409/1998MitsubishiEcpliseGSX#
(if the above link does not work copy and paste it into a new web browser window).

It is still available for sale if interested, price as stated in the ad $2,960, including shipping from Alaska and delivery to your home address.

So if you decide to buy this car or need further information please get back to me as soon as possible.

I look forward to hearing from you,

S. SGT, USAF. Bell L. Anne

Sounds like a great deal and I'm sorry to hear you need the money. Before I pull the trigger on this I'd like to get the VIN # and a list of any modifications that have been done to the car as well.

Thanks for the quick response!

Guess we'll see what kind of B.S. VIN # she (more than likely a HE, scammers just use female names because they are more trusting I guess?) produces.

Its pretty sad man, I should contact the seller since I have a friend in Alaska that's in the airforce as well . I'll have to ask him which one he's in, if its the same one I'd . I guarantee the person either wont reply since their scam has been foiled, or will say they suddenly got deployed to the middle east.
