For a car that only has 4K miles the seats look hammered. I bet the car 204K on it. Still not a bad deal for 87 convertible.

This "Heather Garay" seems to get around.

Wanna bet she lives in Nigeria?

Teehee... I'm going straight to hell.

I just sent her an e-mail from an old account that I had abandoned due to spam years ago, claiming to live in Louisiana and wanting to test drive her fake-ass vert. Then I sent her another one from my main account claiming to live in Tacoma and wanting to see it. Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy

Definately something shady going on there. I've always wondered if there is a way to scam the scammers when you have a jump on them?

Ehh... problem is that's an automated system. It posts to craigslist by itself, then monitors the e-mail inbox for messages. It then spits out a list of e-mail addresses which can be sold.

1) Steal e-mail addresses...
2) ?????
3) Profit!

I've always been confused about the profit from spam. Who responds to that crap, and then gives them money?

Several ways.....

1. Each email they send out they can get a few cents for.
2. Send stupid link in email, when you click link it loads virus/spywear onto machine. It surfs your machine and finds your bank accounts, passwords, email passwords, whatever. They go in and steal your money. Then when there done, they use your email as the bogus email which makes it harder to trace.

First of all I want to thank you for your interest for my car. I sell it at this price because i have just finished with my divorce . The divorce was finished six months ago and the car is mine now . After the divorce I had to buy a new house .
Following the financial crisis I can not afford to pay the bank and I decided to sell the car.
This car is in excellent working conditions, with no scratches, flaws or any kind of damage. The car comes with a clear title in my name .
The VIN is 1G1FP31F2HN163671, you can check it . The car has 8500 real miles.
From the beginning you have to know that for the payment I only request a secure pay method , I prefer the payment to be done using eBay services.
We will use a safe payment method because I am affiliated with eBay and I have a purchase protection account.
The final price that I want for this car is $4500. I will pay for shipping .
If you are interested in buying the car , please give me your full name and address so I can initiate the deal through eBay.
I will wait your answer(if you are interested to buy) very soon.
You can see more photos here : http://s964.photobucket.com/albums/ae130/heatherggaray/

Who's got CarFax? Probably pulled the VIN off an eBay auction after the car was sold.
