Yes, If it looks too good to be true it probably is, Especially if it is on ebay.

You see these things...what they do is ask you to email them first...and may highjack your identity or try to feed you a story and get some up front money.
Never want to respond to these adds..."curiousity killed the cat" Report them to ebay! |

A scam I heard about....Say you are the seller....they give you the asking price. Then bring you a bank check for more than the amount of the car....saying just send me back the difference (makes the seller feel good about the person and confuses the sale, I guess)...turns out the check is fake that looks like a real bank check. Car/boat is gone.My banker had a customer get hooked on this one.

I get a second chance scam on everything I bid on, I even get a second chance when I win. Now that's service. |

Hey MaddMarxx,
You and Blondiegurl buds? You should have pitched in that extra $25 so she wouldn't have to pedal so hard!!! |

Not sure which item you're trying to find but most of these scams are pulled within a day that's why you can't find after we've been talking about it. |

Hey Skicat,
maddmarxx and I are buds, and he wouldnt let me spend any more on that boat, considering all the work that needed to be done on it. I was looking foward to see what i could have really have done to the blue bomb. |

Keep looking Blondiegurl, I found my "red bomb" on ebay as well. Maybe a little better shape that the blue one, but still needs lots of attention. You can find them on there quite often.
