Hello,
I'm the owner of 1969 Chevrolet Camaro RS Z28 on which you've recently show interest through
internet.The car is in proper shape and in perfect running condition. The car is flawless it has
never been laid down.It has a US Clear Title and it is in Showroom Condition. The price for the car
is $4,800 US shipping and handling included in price.
We are expecting a baby in a few months and I really want to improve the
old house that we bought.We wish that the house to be ready
before the baby will come.Those are the reasons why I want US $4800.00 for the car,the price is
including the shipping and insurance charges.Shipping will be done via DAS (Dependable Auto
Shippers) and it will take no more then 2-3 days (depending on your exact location).You will get the
car with proper custom papers, clear title, bill of sale signed by me as well, the unit will be
shipped dry, no oil, no fuel to your closes terminal near your location, and from there it will
trailed to your door.
The transaction will be made through eBay Protectin Program(the car was listed on ebay also) as a
third party in the deal for our own protection. In case we will close this deal, you are protected
by eBay.Your funds will be 100% insured by eBay and I will be sure that I will receive the payment.
One conclusion, we are protected! I will try to tell you in few words how the process works through
eBay.
Their primary purpose is to protect buyers and sellers from fraud. eBay services accept and hold
payment from the buyer until the buyer receives and approves the merchandise. Only then do they
forward the payment to the seller.
If you decide that you want to go further in the purchase, look how we will proceed. You need to
email me as soon as possible your full name and shipping address and as soon as I receive these
information's from you I will forward them to eBay along with the rest of the details in order for
them to open a case regarding our deal, and they will contact you with more information's about the
process (payment, protection policy, etc.)
They will guide you through the process so we can complete this deal successfully and in the best
manner!
I'll look forward to start this deal with you!
Sincerely,
James

You have to be insane to think that is legitimate. A flawless 1969 z28 for $4800 – that alone should raise flags. Broken English, complicated payment arrangements, most likely international deal... Please don’t waste any more of your time with that criminal.
 
$4800 for a "showroom condition" 69 RS/SS?

Do not walk away, RUN!!!!!!!!!

You can't get a #4 69 RS/SS for that.

Kind of a HUGE hint right there.. I'm guessing their last scam e-mail had to do with a motorcycle.. they screwed up in their editing.

You said you had an address...If it's a US address, it's bogus. No one physically located in the US specifies a dollar amount as $4800 US. AND no one is shipping a car over water in any condition for that little amount. I don't care if it's a Yugo in pieces. If the seller is in Canada, that's would negate my argument, it could ship cheaply and they would refer to money that way. But that doesn't change what everyone else has said already.

If it's too good to be true, it's not.

AND this.. Ebay Protection Program will contact you?? No, i don't think so.. You should be contacting e-bay..

BIG TIME SCAM!!

I would forward the email to ebay and ask them. Something tells me they would not insure anything like that and I would bet they would get real upset at their name being used.
