that is crazy what those scammers try to do. I was selling a Playstation 3 last year before Christmas and almost got scammed by a buyer that wanted me to send it to his son in Nigeria. Had to report it and it was a big hassell.

It seems the listing has been removed. I just went to the link and got "This listing (180128006114) has been removed or is no longer available." message!

I asked If I could pay with a cashier's check, when I pick it up. The reply is a templated reply. You've got to love these lazy crooks. It even looks like this could be an identity theft deal.

Hello there and thanks for your interest,

It can be your's for only US $15.000.
The jeep is in excellent condition. It has no scratches on and hasn't been involved in an accident. The motor runs very well. The jeep was always garaged and rarely used and the title is clear. The jeep is in showroom condition at shipping company and it is ready to be shipped... manuals, and all the original documentation included, which will be delivered along with the jeep.
I´ll like to use an eBay service, so we'll be both protected.
No money first to me, i will receive money after you will receive the car.
The transaction will be made under eBay's buyer protection plan.
Since this deal will be made using a THIRD PARTY to help us closing this deal, I prefer honnest buyers.
Anyway, if you want more details about this deal, please reply with the following informations:

-First name...........
-Last name............
-Address..............
-City.................
-Country..............
-Zip/Code.............
-eBay ID..............

You have nothing to worry about this deal because it will be done in a secure way.
The most important thing in all my activities, is that I have a Purchase Protection Account for $20,000 and I assume you know what this means.
I'm a serious seller and a fair trader and I prefer to deal only with a serious buyer.
If you consider yourself one please e-mail me back with your shipping details so we can start our deal.
I will look for your email, so that we can move forward with this deal!
Regards,

The phrasing is funny. Obviously foreign.

I like how he keeps repeating the "deal"
