First Email To Him:

I would like some more info on the Viper. What type of title does it
have? What happened to the Viper? How do I become a " pre-approved " bidder?

His response:

You don't have to bid because my car price is 22,000 USD
The viper is in very good working conditions, Has a clear title because
i want to sell and need to be rettitled by the new owner , i have the all
necesary papers for that .Thank you




Second Email to him:

How exactly do I become pre-approved ?

His Respone:

6th:

how am i supposed to pay you?

Him:

Hello there,
Thank you for your interest in purchasing my item .
First of all I must inform you that currently I'm in Portugal and the
machine is here with me .My faher, who died two keeks ago was the first
owner of the car; He bought it directly from a local dealership in
Ohio.
The machine is in great condition ,only 3,900 miles on it,no damage,no
scratches or dents, no hidden defects,keept in our own garage.
The machine is an US model with US specs,it passed the test
emissions and comes with all the documents you need to register the
item.
It has a clear title and it can be registerd into your name.
I recently ordered a new car from a dealer down here and i
need the cash in the next few days to pay for it.
The price I hope to obtain is $22,000USD (this price includes the
shipping and insurance) and if you agree with this price we can start
to complete the transaction. I have to tell you that I have other serious
offers that I have to consider and I will make a decision regarding this sale
function of time of payment and price.i will shipp the car using KLM 5-7 air days delivery, and i will cover all taxes.We can make this COD, but if you want to keep the car for you,
then you have to make a down deposit with 3,000 USD.
So email me back if you are intersted and you have the cash.
The car will be shipped from Portugal and i will cover the shipping
costs and insurance.You will not have to pay additional taxes,just only
the price for it.
Let me know!


7th:

him: awaiting response...

Re: Scammer...too easy

Send him an email saying something like,
"ok, I will buy it for 23k USD".

Then tell him the $3k deposit is attached to the email. Have a blank attachment on it.

When he tells you that he doesn't understand how it can be attached, ask him what he did with it because you attached it for sure.

Oh yeah,
You don't have time to be messing with this kind of thing. You should be out mowing lawns or picking up aluminum cans.

Re: Scammer...too easy

Start emailing him back and complaining about your wife, or that you have to wait until your next paycheck, or if he has any ideas about how to stop backpain, how to use western union and where to go, tell him you need directions, and that the directions he gave you are wrong or you dont understand them, then start ******** about your wife or back again. Thats what I did for about 3 weeks and he gave up. Ebay scam on a plasma TV.

Its real fun to f*ck with scammers!

Re: Scammer...too easy

Tell him you have some distant relatives or a neighbor with relatives ANYWHERE that he says he is located, and you would like to arrange to have them look at the car. Then see what happens!

I love screwing with these dorks too, but usually on the second email I say I have someone to look at it they all of a sudden disappear!
