It's the standard Craiglist Scam..... here's my story... good deal on a trailer, emailed them and didn't hear back for a few weeks. Then contact claiming email was sent to junk file, so please provide email address & they would never call me back only emails.  Contact started, he stated that he was selling it through a warehouse company called Mantis Auto consignment and Sales... they offer free shipping, 7 day return guaruntee, he also said it was housed in Tucson, AZ.  All I had to do was wire transfer the $15,800 and they would ship it for free up to 1000 miles because he was a long time client.   A couple of things to note:  emailer actually used fairly good grammer and spelling, website looked very believable but found that there was NO information to look at other recreation vehicles on their website. After a couple of email exchanges, pressure was put on to register and buy... like I have many people interested, first one to register will get a great deal. I researched a lot and even spoke to somone on the phone. We ended up wiring the funds and now there is turned out to be a SCAM.  

If you wire funds to RANTANAS CORP then you will know it is the same company.  To find out this Corp has been around since March out of New York.  I even had the VIN # they gave me researched to see if it was stolen & also had my insurance run a quote.  I started researching scams and found this exact scam using other names, such as "Dimarco" and "Vinton"..... I am not sure but hiring a detective or an authority to help stop these people from doing it to someone else.  

In SHORT, Do Not wire funds to someone you don't know.  Lesson learned on our part

 Our boat we purchased for 20,000 was in a wreck as well and it's been past the 1-3 day refund! We have plenty of proof that has been provided to the FBI and police.

Why would you not post your real name if your story is for real?

Let the people know who should they contact, to tell them the fake story you have created. Maybe on the phone you will not be able to tell them all these bulshits, or who know, you will find other more stories interesting. I bet you can do that as long as you have created this one.

Can you provide some real proofs that you have been scammed?

No, you can't, you will exprime your self here because you think you are anonimus and that gives you the right to write whatever you want.

Surprise!!!
