Complaint Review: Craigslist Scam With Moneybookers.com/Jeep Purchase - Glasgow Scotland Internet

Hello,

Sorry for the delayed response, but I'm in Glasgow (Scotland) right now and I have been very busy.Anyway,thank you for your interest in buying the car. The car is located in US right now and has US papers.Why is the price so low? I am going trough a divorce, and I had to move out of USA I cannot register the car here, as it is made for USA, according to USA standards. So all that I want to do now is to sell the car at this price, because I need to sell it fast(I already made a deposit here to buy me another).The title is clean and you will have absolutely no problems to register the car in the States.

I will tell you a few words about the car..

My 2006 JEEP WRANGLER X with manual transmission it is in immaculate condition with 3,147 Miles and have the VIN number: 1J4FA39S76P708334 , rust free , no scratch and hasn't been involved in any accident. The motor runs very well(4.0L L6 MPI ).The interior looks great( NO SMOKING).This car needs nothing,the title is clear ,it is not a salvage one.

I want this transaction to go smoothly enough as I am caught in the middle of some very important events and have little time at my disposal. I already have tones of emails so I hope you understand that I need to sort them out. The car is like new, in perfect conditions,accident free, no scratches, no special marks, no need for additional repairs what so ever. a genuine road runner ready to be yours, but only if you shall understand and you won't make me loose time as it has already happened to me.

Here are all the photos of my car. The pictures are recent, and they were taken right before preparing the car for sale.

The car is exactly as shown in the pictures: http://s247.photobucket.com/albums/gg126/jeepjeepwern/

The price is $4,500.00 USD THIS IS MY LAST PRICE.I will not negotiate the price.I will take in consideration only those buyers who are really interested in buying the car ,to be sure that I don't waist my time with endless discussions.This way,I shall be assured of the serious intentions .

So if you are interested please email me back for next step.

Regards !!

Hi again, Look how we will do this step:

Before leaving I had prearranged shipping and the payment with MoneyBookers Company (check www.moneybookers.com ) so my presence in U.S isn't necessary(The car is locked in a warehouse at the shipping company in Virginia ready for delivery).The the price of car $4,500.00 includes all the shipping costs and insurance, so you won't have to pay any extra charges.

Here is what I suggest: we will use MoneyBookers which acts like an escrow service , you make an deposit in an MoneyBookers managed trust fund ( they hold the money until you receive the car ), I send the car over( the car will be delivered with the title, owner's manual, 2 sets of keys, service records, and of course the bill of sale authorised and signed by me),I will offer a 5 day period from the day you receive it from the shipping company,you can inspect it, take it to a mechanic to check it out, drive it and then if you decided to keep it, you'll confirm to MoneyBookers the sale and they will send the payment to me. If, by any reason, you will not be satisfied with it ( even though I can assure you that it is exactly as described), you can return it at my expense for a full refund of your money, no questions asked.I think this is more than fair for the both of us.

NOTE: The payment is refundable, and is just a security measure, to make sure that you are serious, and that I am not going to ship the car, and loose time and money.

If you are interested to go ahead with the deal, please reply with your full name and shipping address so I can ask MoneyBookers to open a case! After, they will contact you explaining all the details regarding the payment.

I'm looking forward to hear from you.

Thank you.
