    Here are two emails I received from someone selling an RV on Craigslist – my husband, who is so very skeptical about everything almost believed the story. He would never send any money especially wouldn’t send one penny on something he hasn’t seen, however, I am sure there are people that send a down payment or something. The following are the two emails that were sent to me.

    Hi,
    First of all I want to thank you for your interest in my 2003 Winnebago Minne Winne. Is in absolutely perfect condition and well maintained. I sell it at this price ($14,700) because I just finished the divorce with my husband. When the divorce was finished I owned this. Now as a women I don’t need it. The total price is $14,700 and it includes delivery to your address. As I travel a lot and I can’t do this transaction personally, the transaction will be made through eBay protection program for the safety of both of us, through bank transfer so we can be sure of the legitimacy of our deal. I have to let you know that I want a fast deal because I have some financial problems right now. If you want to buy it I just need your full name and address so I can open a case. You must know that eBay will contact you without any obligation to buy it or fees.
    Please reply me asap if interested.
    Thank you,

    Ashley Robertson

    Hi again,

    The RV is already at the delivery company in Miami, Florida sealed and ready for delivery. I’m very busy with my daughter so I can’t meet you in person, so this is the reason why I chose to sell my RV over the Internet. I have a contract with eBay so this deal must go through them. This is how it will work. First of all I will need your full name and full delivery address. After I will receive the info, I will forward them to eBay. They will process your info and will send us both invoices. eBay will send you all the details on how to make a refundable payment. They holds the funds until the RV is delivered to buyer, inspected and the buyer confirms that he received the RV in the described condition. According with the eBay you have 5 days from the time you receive the RV to inspect it and decide if you want to keep it or not. If you for any reason will not like the RV (but I assure you that will not happening) eBay will refund the money and I will instruct the delivery company to store the RV until I will find a new buyer. Is not necessary to ship the RV back. If you wish to make the transaction, please send me the necessary info so that we can proceed.
    I look forward to hear from you.

    Thank you,
    Ashley

    Thank you sir! We need more sites like this to expose these people. I just got through with a horrible craigslist experience from a scammer. So attention audiovideoalliance@yahoo.com, if you’re listening, you won’t get away with this!
