Ad on Craigslist for a SkidSteer Bobcat 873 Tire Size - $100. Description asked $1800.00. Bobcat was supposed to be located within 100 miles of my town and ad even gave a contact # to that effect, so I decided to make contact with seller to ask questions and possibly make the purchase. After several attempts at contacting seller with no verbal response I finally received a text saying that they couldn't talk because the number was a work phone, but if I texted my email address to that same # I would be sent via my email additional pics and info, so I went ahead and did. I received an email with more pics and with detailed info on the Bobcat and a sob story as to why it was being sold so cheap. I then returned an email to her saying I was still interested and asked where the Bobcat was located and when I could make a purchase. She says she's in Mississippi at her parents and the Bobcat was at a shipping company in Biloxi, MS and she adds " My presence won't be necessary because I prearranged the deal with eBay. The deal includes free delivery and it will arrive at your address in 2-3 days. You will have 5 days to try out prior to making any purchase and if by any reason you find something you don't like about it you can send it back at my expense. If you are interested in knowing more info about how it works, I can ask eBay to send you an email with more information on how to purchase it. eBay will contact you shortly after they have the details with all the confirmation that you need to complete the deal. If you would like to receive the email from eBay with all the transaction information please reply with your full name, shipping address and phone # and they will contact you right away." Of course I was thinking this is too good to be true but I just had to play this out to see how this transaction would be asked to be completed if I wanted to buy this Bobcat, so I returned an email to her stating my continued interest in making this purchase with the info she said she needed. She then emails me saying " I got your information and I will go ahead and start the transaction at eBay for this sale. As soon they will register our transaction, they will email you the invoice with instructions on how this sale can be completed successfully and stress free. I will keep you updated on the process." And then I get an invoice from eBay which in short has her name, address, etc and my name address, etc and instructions on how to make payment. I copied this off the invoice:

US $1,800.00 (9 cards x $200 each) via eBay Cards
