Icon3 some guy selling a crx (found out about something after researching it)

http://modesto.craigslist.org/cto/2077548024.html This was the ad that i saw. Here is the information that i received in the email.
Hello,
���� The price is $2800.
This car is a real 'head turner' and it will make you proud, it is in excellent condition,never been involved in accidents, 155,800 miles, VIN:JHMED9367LS012426 ,clean and clear title,no mechanical problems,no scratches,flaws or any kind of damage,all functional and it will need nothing in the near future.
���� I have the car sealed at DAS terminal in West Palm Beach, FL ready to be shipped out will take 4-5 days through DAS and it will be free,my previous buyer(his loan did not get approved)already paid for it and DAS didn't want to refund him the shipping fee. So you will not be charged for shipping!
I cannot meet face2face I have a new job in Tucson, AZ I would like to use Autotrader Vehicle Purchase to take care of this deal, smooth and safe. Let me know if you have any other questions, hope i didn't miss anything.
���� More pictures here: http://picasaweb.google.com/metabo8/...77645043455234

���� Thank you, Melvin.



Here is where I did the research:

He should at LEAST change the information! I guess he gets a new job at Arizona a lot and that his car is still in Florida for the past 7 months.

this ad has been up in every state. Its actually a member of Honda-tech's car that the guy stole the pics of. If you notice, his add is just a picture not text so that he can post it everyone on craigslist and not get it removed for duplicate ads

so he can scam as many people as possible into sending him $2800 and never receiving a car.

Im sure it has actually worked a few times, there is def a lot of interest in the car, too bad its not really for sale or his!

If i remember correctly the real owner lives in canada, and the pics clearly cut out the license plate. The real owner has the same pics but unedited with the plate number in the pics. I believe his name is Robb

Does anyone find it ironic that the owner's name is Rob?

Reminds me of those old jokes.... "Waddya call a guy with no arms, no legs in a pile of leaves? .......................... Rustle"

Waddya call a guy who posts his CRX for sale but it's not really his.. oh never mind.

Hate to say it but somebody at work said they a lady at their church bought a 9 passenger van off cl.

Then after the person said they did not get the wire transfer to do it again.

She went to the bank to complain and the teller said oh ****.

Got the manager and pulled the money from the wire transfer location.

5 minutes they got a call from the person scamming saying still have not got the money.

There are still a few people out there that are really trusting.
