Yahoo Auto - Barbara Brode ripoff Scam fraud SACRAMENTO California
I saw an ad for a 2003 Mini Cooper asking $11000 I replied to the ad and made an offer. below is a copy of the response I recived.
A few things did not add up that made me suspicous. I pruchased an AutoCheck report form Yahoo Autos and in the report it said that the car has a Lien on it and it was in Los Angeles. This person who is trying to sell this car Barbara said it is paid off and the ad said she lives in Sacramento, CA.
I also had my daughter make an offer on the car and below is her response.

Hi there,
I am glad that you are interested in buying my car, you should know that it's in brand new condition, has no mechanical or cosmetic problems, was never involved in any kind of accidents, it was always garage kept and the
car has been paid in full.
I am looking to sell it right away for $11000 (shipping and title transfer fees included). There is a reason for selling it for such a low price but I'm not willing to discuss it in public so please don't ask. The car is located at the YAHOO SHIPPING CENTER, because I am at USA Naval base in Europe and I cant close the deal in person, that's why Yahoo will act like a third party. They will handle payment and shippment for me. If you decide to buy it, below I have described the transaction process in short.
- First you have to make a down payment of $3000 at YAHOO SHIPPING CENTER .
- After payment is confirmed by yahoo they will proceed with the delivery of
the car to your address.
- You will have a ten day inspection period to check that the car is in perfect condition as described.
- Yahoo will hold the payment until the ten day inspection/acceptance period
has elapsed.
- If you decide to keep the car, you will have to send the remaining
balance and the title will be transferred to your name.
- If you decide not to purchase the car you will get a full refund and the
car will be returned on my expense.
If you agree with these terms, get back to me with your full name and shipping address so we can start the secure transaction over yahoo and also we will be contacted and assisted in every step by them.
Thanks
Barb
