sclaire lucyans34 also the phone number Advertised a 1997 Toyota T100 Pickup on Craigslist Internet- Connecticut
There was a 1997 Toyota T100 pick up advertised on craigslist. The phone number listed was 540-602-5234. We called and left a message. We received an email stating he had listed the truck for a friend and gave the email address as sclaire121. I sent a message to this address. I received a response back she was a Sgt. Medic in the army. She was in Ct., at a National Guard base being preped for deployment to Japan for 1 year. She stated the truck had belonged to her late husband, he died 2 months ago in a tragic auto accident. We had several emails back and forth.
She advised me she would take caremof shipping the truck through ebay motors. I spoke with them several times through emails. I was instructed to buy 3 green dot cards and load $500.00 dollars each on them. The price of the truck as advertised was $1500.00. This we did. Ebay motors then instructed me to take pictures of the front and back of the cards as well as the receipt of purchase and forward it to them. They then confirmed receipt of this. I was then contacted back by Claire telling me she would be contacting me in 1-2 hours with the shipping information. About 2 hours later I received an email from her stating a carrier had been secured and the truck would be delivered to my home on Monday. This all took place on Saturday, July 30, 2015. When the truck did not arrive on Monday or Tuesday we started to get worried. I emailed both Claire and the phone number numerous times with no response. I then on Tuesday contacted the craigslist posting for reporting fraud to their legal team.
I received one response from them asking for my location and information about our law enforcement. Then on August 6, 2015 at 5;50PM, My husband received a text from 540-602-5234 statingPlease contact Lucia at: lucyans34 for the T100. I have listed the truck for her. Thank u.
We have heard no more from the craigslist legal team and I have posted an additional info report after receivig this last text. I have checked these cards for balance information and it says the last 4 numbers of the social security number I enter is invalid. Can you please help me as we are very limited on funds and have been saving to purchase a truck for my husband as his was a loss in an accident in September 2014. We can't afford a bank payment and have been saving to buy something decent. I am very disappointed in /craigslist and their noncarring attitude. I hope you will be able to help us. Thank you for listening. Delmis L. & Vickie L. Sites
