Craig's List Scammer - Beware!

[daytonajim]

I've even had scamers try & resell a car that I just sold.



They need to be called out, busted & prosecuted.



Never give any of your information out until yo know who you are dealing with.



If you want to have some fun harass her back & send e-mails so she thinks they are coming to put her in jail & she is busted.



Am I threatening back? - Dam right! - Jim



HERE'S HOW THE SCAM GOES...............

Am happy to see your response back,can you assure me that it's

in good condition and that i will not be disappointed with it.I'm ready to

pay your asking price and to be honest I am always busy at work and do not

have much time around me to make or answer calls. Moreover,I would have

loved

to call but our satellite server has been down in recent days which

restricts our calls.I will be paying you through PayPal as it is the

only Medium at which i can send Payment at the Moment.

I would appreciate if you email me with more pictures (if available) too

since i won't be be able to see this in person. And if you don't have a

PayPal account, It's pretty easy to set up a PayPal account at

http://www.paypal.com/ it's just a few minutes away from signing up. it's

safe and secure for both Parties and i have been using PayPal to buy

and sell for years now without problems. Please get back to me with your

FINAL SELLING PRICE and PayPal email so i can proceed with the payment

and contact the Pick up Agent who will come for the Pick up

I will need these following details so i can proceed with the payment

right away



Your PayPal e-Mail Address

Home Address

Contact phone no

FINAL PRICE



As soon as you get back to me with your PayPal email, I'll proceed

with full Payment. I look forward to reading from you soon.

You are in a lot of trouble!



You have not replied & this is now under investigation by IC3 & Craig’s List.



Look out your window – Are they there yet watching you? They will be & you will be held accountable.



You need to stop trying to scam people immediately, you will be caught & prosecuted.



How do you think you are going to get away with this? I will be testifying when legal action is taken.



If this is not a scam I suggest you contact me immediately so I can notify the authorities.



You messed with the wrong person – see you in court.







...........fyi........... 2003 Jeff Gordon SS on Craig’s list........... Be aware of scams..........



People like this piss me off --- total scam -- I've reported this to IC3 (Internet Crime Complaint Center) & Craig's list.



This is ongoing & I always make them think they are being watched & will be busted. Dam right I threaten them!



I will never let anyone get away with scams! The never should try this on me because I WILL come after them.



If you want to have some fun send her an e-mail & let her know she is busted & lite her up.

Consequently, it is important that you maintain any evidence you have relating to your complaint. Evidence can include canceled checks, credit card receipts, phone bills, mailing envelopes, mail receipts, printed copies of websites, copies of emails, or similar items.



If you wish to view, download, or add information to your complaint, go to http://complaint.ic3.gov/update and log in with the following:
