Hello,
I`m Sergeant Helen Miller. You have to know that the 2003 Honda Accord EX 6 - Cyl Automatic. I am selling is 100% working and great looking, no flaws or dents, no scratches or any kind of damage. The title is clear. It has 46,749 miles. The VIN# is 1hgcm66803a050494. This vehicle engine runs very, very smooth. No electrical problems on this beauty. This detailed vehicle makes the exterior looks like it just came off the assembly line.
Here are the pics of the car:

As I know that my current situation is pretty special I want the deal closed only through eBay's Buyer Protection Program in order for you to be 100% protected. You will make the payment to eBay and they will hold the money until you receive the car. ONLY AFTER you receive the car and inspect it (for 10 days) eBay will release the payment to me; in this way we are both protected. Anyway i am sure that if you won`t be satisfied with the car i will surely find another buyer in your area and there will be no need for you to ship the car back.
I am located in Madrid, Spain and I was sent here to improve the military relationships between USA and Spain. One months ago, my husband moved here with me and brought the car with him, but now we have to sell it back in the United States because we can't register it here; it has US specs and everything, and registering it here in Europe will take forever. My final price on it is $1,500. If you will take it for this price, I am willing to handle the shipping. It will be shipped from here by plane with US Air Military Cargo so it will not cost me anything. You will get it to the nearest airport in your area and then it will be trucked forward to your place. You will receive the car in about 3 days. Please get back to me asap if you decide to buy, and include in your e-mail your full name and address where you want it shipped so I can start the deal with eBay. You will receive all the transaction payment and shipping details from them.
Respectfully,
SSgt. Helen Miller

Kisha, this is a well known scam.

This scam has been around for years. Helen Miller and Susan Williams don't even exist, they're made up names. Glad you realized it was a scam before wiring any money. While this scam is well known, you'd be surprised at how many people still fall for it.

Let me see, they have the car in Spain but after payment is made they can have it delivered to you in 3 days. Air freighting a car is about $10,000 from Spain to East Coast US. Highly unlikely.......
I'm amazed eBay allows their name to be used in such a scam.
