I may catch crap for this, but anyone who believes someone would sell a car way under value, ship it to you for free, and let you try it out for a few days before paying deserves to lose their money.

I've seen it before. (I would write to them just for kicks)..Their scam was... the car is in England and their brother couldn't get it to pass smog so they are selling it cheap. Sad that some people fall for it

I wrote this person on 4/25/2013 telling them I reported them to ebay for running a scam by trying to sell someone elses Camaro... The ebay add has since been removed

Here's the reply I got today..Seems like she/whoever is talking to themselfs lol

From: Cathy Gilmore <[email protected]

Hello there,
Cathy you are one of the people interested in buying my car. I'm selling it because i recently got divorced and as a single woman i don't need it. Let me give you a few details about it: very good shape, no mechanical issues,no scratches nor dents, and it has never been involved in any kind of accidents. Has only 3500 miles, its Automatic, with an 8 Cyl engine, RWD, WRX Blue Pearl exterior and Black interior.The sale price is $11.500. I have a clear title, free of any liens or loans on it, under my name. If you are interested in buying it or if you have any questions, please reply to this email.

Sincerely,
Cathy
