Austin, I asked the seller a question yesterday. I asked him to take the ad off of ebay and I would immediately paypal him $20,364.37.

 

Well, ebay emailed me last night and the seller answered my question today!

Our records indicate that you recently sent an email to or received an email from ercksnla through the eBay email system (for example, you may have sent an email to this member through Ask Seller a Question or received an email from this member through Contact eBay Member).

 

Sometimes eBay accounts are used to send email solicitations for transactions outside of eBay, or to send unrelated questions in hopes that you will respond so that the other party can obtain your email address.

Please keep in mind, sales that take place outside of eBay are not eligible for any eBay or PayPal protective services and you run the risk of losing your money or your item if you complete these transactions. We would encourage you to review the eBay pages related to Fraud Protection at the address provided below for information on steps you can take to ensure that your transactions are successful:

THE SELLER SENT:

Hi,

thank you for your time and interest in my car.The car is flawless,no scratches or dings whatsoever.It wasn't involved in an accident or something like that.The title is in my possesion and it is a clean title,no liens and it is not a salvaged title.The selling price is $4500 with shipping included in the continental US.

Now,i have only one problem,and it is major.I am now in Las Cruces,TX,so i can not be there to deliver the car(in case that you want it shipped) or if you want to inspect and test drive it.But i am willing to ship it prior receiving payment.So i will ship it to you and after you receive it and if you desire to keep it you will pay the shipping firm.

If all this is ok with you please let me know your questions and i will do my best to answer everyone of them.

 

Thank you,

Erickson Larry

CYGNUSX1... Keep trying to reel this guy in. He'll ask for personal information. You obviously will not give that to him. You could ask him to meet you somewhere so you can deliver cash to him. Have the cops with you:flamedevi

I doubt this moron is even in the States. Law enforcement won't even waste their time with stuff like this. Which exposes to me a large hole in current law enforcement! They go after speeders, cats in trees, or John Gotti, and Terrorists, but nobody in between. We need a resolution of enforcement that covers mid to low level, and pseudo-crimes. Mike Kelly, need more business?

The inversed name makes me think he is indeed overseas somewhere and has a list of American names written that way... "Erickson, Larry"... and he just eliminated the comma.

Just sent this.

 

 

Hey Erickson,

 

What luck!! I have just been told that I need to be in Las Cruces,TX in the next few days to complete some business. It would be great if i could take out to lunch and we could discuss this marvelous car that you are selling. Do you have any favorite places to eat?
