My brother is looking for a truck. He found THIS 2005 F-150 on craigslist. Looks ok and all but everyone else in our family thinks somethings fishy. Too good to be true type things. 2005 F-150 XLT. 29,000 miles. $3,900. The owner also acts like hes in an extreme hurry to sell. Told us "I want this transaction to be smooth and I don't have much time at my disposal to engage in endless discussions."

Opinions?

 

Maybe 13,900?
Probably a typo

 

That's a member on here, he was asking 15k last I saw. quickerthanu or something like that.

 

i was thinking the same thing

Probably wants you to pay him 3,900 and take over payments.

 

just another scam, when i had my truck on ebay some A-hole copied all my pics and was trying to sell his truck with them, needless to say i got like 10 guys wanting it for 15 grand. STAY AWAY!!

 

scam, had the same post here a couple weeks ago, iactually talked to the guy who poses a lt in the military but once I asked to see it in person as he said he was only about an hour from he he responded no more and the previous owner sold it and this guy just uses that ad over and over, google it

 

Cool, thanks everyone. I'll tell my bro.

 

my one buddy is looking for an f150 and he saw the same type of thing, big scam

 

So I'm confused.

I read up on the threads and I understand it is a scam, but what kind of scam?

Is he just expecting people to give him the 3k and then he's just going to take off? Or is the truck stolen or something?

 

He asks that you send him the money and will ship the vehicle to you, and he says to use ebay for a safe third party but it's just a scam. I saw it and thought no way is that right, so I emailed him and he replied back with his location, he told me to just send the money and he would ship it to me. when I asked to see it in person and pay cash I never got an email back

 

Flagged for removal...

 

He doesn't actually have the truck...

 

or if you are selling something, they want you to print out a cashier's check and they will even pay for the paper, then they have a company pick up the goods and you get a jack!!
