This is just to let you know that there are several trailers with
living quarters on e-bay right now for a unreal, low asking price.
It is a SCAM.........
They are asking for money up front and say that they live out of the country, etc.
That old saying is true....A living quarters trailer for under $6000.00
Too good to be true!!8

Yea, and if you list a horse for sale on the internet you will get offers to send you extra money and you are then to forward the difference to a specified person. If it is too good to be true . . .

A friend of mine just got scammed 6k on a 4 wheeler she bought on Ebay. This guys stated he was from Italy with an Ebay warehouse in CA that had his items. Red flag right there!!! Anytime they say they are from out of the country, United Kingdom is a biggy, have an Ebay warehouse and tell you to contact them via another address versus through the Ebay system is the first sign. But when someone lists a $75,000 trailer for .99 and a Buy it Now price of $5000 that is the true tale sign and people fall for that????

I think the "Ebay warehouse" is a big tip off. A friend of mine was excited about the last Featherlite Ebay warehouse product.. for about the same price. I told her to send that ad to Spoof@ebay.com and forget about it.
She still wouldn't believe me and it ended up someone else reported it (probably a person from this list.. YAY for you!!!) Another friend told me she said it was a scam and she was very sad. Otherwise, she would have lost out on money if the ad hadn't been pulled. She just couldn't let it go.
The bad part is that some of the checks (yes, they are getting better) actually cash and then the person thinks AHHHH, and ends up losing after they thought they had won.

Guess I am slacking!!! I was emailing those scammers, reporting them, etc for quite a while, then got busy with colt breaking, and trailer shopping! So I guess it is time for me to be a pain in their kiesters again eh? lol....
I wish there was a way we could eliminate nigerian internet service!
