[Pablo]

Have you guys seen the p-p-powerbook scam?

very suspicious please read this good info.

I have first hand knowledge of a crew of Romanians that are using ebay to scam people. The way some of the words were mispelled makes me think its the same crew. The one reported scam I saw was concerning a Honda ATV. There were similar payment instructions but western union was used in this case. The same crew was also reprograming there own credit card strips with stolen account info then chargin up a storm at places like home depot. Great scam, their name is on the front of the card, they show their drivers license, usually no cashier is trained to compare account #s on the receipt with the #s on the face of the card so they were runnin wild for a while til we caught the one.

That sucks. It would be nice to see them end up in a Romanian prison. Ours are club med compared to those prisons.

It almost looks like the xxxxx to English translation was done with something like FreeTranslation.com

I would be cool if there was some way to charge it back to them so they had to pay. In the old days scumbums had to get close to you to steal, now they do it miles away in another country.

telling me that he is no longer interested, because his wife wants other
car!!! A lot of strange persons on eBay lately...
It is still available for 8000 USD and if you want to buy it please give
me your name and shipping adress so I can contact Square Trade.
About the payment process you must to know that:
You must make a transfer with the deposit(4000$) via Money Gram to my
name and after that you must send a fax with the receipt of payment to
Square Trade so they can start the shipping process because the car is into
Square Trade possesion and they can't start the shipping process until they
will receive your fax with receipt of payment.After they will receive your
fax they will ship you the car and will give you the tracking #.When you
will receive the car and title you must send a confirmation to Square Trade
to tell them that everything is ok with the car so they can send me
the info about the payment.
The shipping is free only in US and Canada
I'm waiting your email with your full name, shipping address and your ebay ID so I can contact Square Trade to help us to close this deal in the best conditions witch can be.

What's this guy's email address?

It would be interesting to see what he would do if someone else offered to buy it out from under you. Watch how he reacts. Chances are he will sell it to whoever else does this as well. Hang the goof on his own greed.
