I am in the market for a gentle used inexpensive Toyota Corolla or Honda civic. I searched on the internet and found a 2005 Toyota Corolla S with 31,000 miles listed for $5,300. I called the telephone number listed and had to leave a message. I also sent am email to the listed address. The following day I received this reply:

Hi,
I'm Frank Stone, you inquired about my 2005 Toyota Corolla S (VIN: 1NXBR32E25Z397814).
I apologize for the delay, I'm in the military and now I am in United Kingdom and that's why I couldn't reply in time. If you are still interested in buying it, I'm asking $5,300. It has a clean title, very well maintained, always garage kept, no rust, excellent condition, runs and sounds 100% perfect with no leaks or noises. All power and optional equipments are working perfect. I have to sell this car as fast as I can because in three weeks I will be in Iraq and I think I'll stay there for a while that's why I'm selling it so cheap. I intend to buy a new car when I'll get back home.

If you want to buy the car, I can ship for free within US with one of our military airplanes so you don't have to worry about the distance. If you are interested we can use a third party escrow broker, Moneybookers (http://www.moneybookers.com/app/help.pl?s=escrow), to secure the transaction and to handle this whole process for us. Using a reputable E-Commerce third party escrow company will secure the transaction and you will receive the car before I'll get paid and of course I'm also covered because the funds will be kept safety into the escrow account. This is the best way for me even if I'll have to pay some extra money for their services. I'll cover the broker's fee and like I've explained, the shipping will be free because I can use one of our airplanes here and I don't have to pay anything. Let me know if you are interested. You can see some pics on the following link from my personal page: http://picasaweb.google.com/fstn33/Corolla
You'll love the car, I can guarantee you that!

Frank & I exchanged various emails in which he confirmed that this was a legitimate offer to sell. It looked too good to be true so I had many doubts and fears. I eventually googled reports on moneybookers and found a report that contained the same details as the above response from Frank. Thank God someone else had taken the time to make that report. If it were not for that report I would have sent $5,300 to moneybookers and waited for ever to receive the Corolla.

TOYOTA ENGINES ARE KNOWN FOR SLUDGING & THEIR VEHICLES ARE KNOWN FOR HAVING DEFECTIVE SAFETY EQUIPMENT installed in them!!

Google this- ENGINE SLUDGE and go to the consumeraffairs website about Toyota Engine problems and read all of them! Then, click on 'Airbags' and read all of them!! YOUR LIFE COULD BE IN DANGER because if you are in an accident and your airbags don't deply, you could be seriously injured or even KILLED!

Google this- SUIT: DEFECT REPORTS ALTERED TOYOTA PLANT and read the Whistleblower Lawsuit!! YOUR LIFE COULD BE IN DANGER if your Toyota has DEFECTIVE PARTS!

Have a nice day!

P.S. Google this- SINGH V TOYOTA and read it!! He burned to death in his Toyota COROLLA!
