Hey I can't find that thread about the Romanian Ebay Scammer so I am starting this new thread. I think this may be that scammer guy, so let me know what you think. Item number: 4620743987 - it's the LeMans/gto clone from the movie XXX2, and buy it now for $8000? I don't know about that, doesn't that sound a little to good to be true? The scammer guy always had buy it now for like $6000, right? Maybe it's legit, but 0 feedback? And the car looks pretty darn good if you ask me (custom paint, body kit-not too into that, cusom hood-awesome, and I believe the movie cars had built chevy 350's right?) But people are bidding on it so maybe it's real, but be careful if you bid on this one.

WOULD YOU SELL IT FOR 8000.00 IF IT WAS A LAJIT MOVIE GOAT? lOOK FOR A PHONE NUMBER TO CALL HIM , THEN DO . LOOK FOR SOMETHING LIKE HIS E-MAIL IS FULL SO USE THIS OTHER E-MAIL ADDRESS. ASK TO FLY IN AND SEE THE CAR. i'LL BET IT IS OVER SEAS BUT HE WILL PAY FULL SHIPPING IF YOU WIN.

The auction is gone so it was a scam. The scam auctions always say something about not emailing through Ebay because they will not receive the email and they list an email address in the auction. It is usually an Yahoo email address but not always. The emil address is usually listed several times and in bold and bright colors. Below is a link to one that I'm messing with now.

This one must be a scam as well. He's forgotten to remove the reference to "the bike" towards the end of the description. Guess he just cuts & pastes any legitimate descriptions into his scamming template!

He's got 3 others going on too. They all end at the same time.

Look at the bids on that page, then go to the individual listings. The amounts are different.

That thing sold at auction for 40k and then I saw it on ebay too for the 8k what a joke and no matter where you click on the auction on ebay it goes to an email address outside of ebay. you cannot even click and ask the real owner of the account a question it auto goes to the scammers email address

I cannot believe these people, but they would not be there if there weren't fools to fall for these scams
