AutoTrader car with 72,850 miles located in D.C. is probably a correct listing. The EBay listing is bogus - same vin, 42,850 miles and says it's in Houston - all bogus.

Default reply from the seller

i wrote:

what's the catch? engine sold seperately?
--------------------

response:


Dear Sir ,

Let me share a few things about this car . The engine works perfect. The car was never involt in a accident .I'm the first owner of this car and i have a clear title so, the transaction can be completed quickly.I think you have one big question ??wahy so cheap , because the car was made for US market and I can4t register the car here in Europe .

Terms & Conditions Shipping and handling:


The shipping address must be provided before sending the payment. The car will be shipped trough FedEx, JC MOTORS or Lufthansa Cargo Air Insured.The package will only be sent after receiving the deposit. I agreed with eBay to send my item to its warehouse for inspection.
This way, both sides (seller and buyer) are insured by eBay. The shipping will be sent to your address from eBay's warehouse in San Jose, CA, where the car was sent for testing.
Payment:
If you will offer t he buy it now price I will suport all the shipping from San Jose to your address

To secure the sale please send the western union deposit (4000$) asap.
The payment method wich I prefer for deposit it is Western Union Money Transfer.
Western Union procedures are simple, to make the transfer all you have to do is to go to any agent and make the transfer to the name and address i'll provide you with.

The remain amount I will prefere by bank transfer or paypal
Here are my name and adress you need for the deposit:

Dany Parossi

Via Bronzetti 60

35138

Padova , Italy


The car is ready for shipment, i just need your deposit confirmation from Western Union with the transfer's details and the car will be delivered to your address.

REFUND-After the car arrives, you have an 7 days period for inspection. If the car is different than the way i've described it, 100% refund - transfer fees and the car will be shipped back to San Jose, CA on seller's expence. Anyways, i don't think it will be necesary, you'll love this car from very first moment you'll see it.


Buy with confidence!

I will have a recomandation email from eBay be sent to you to proof my trustworthiness.
Thanks for the conceded time and Iam looking forward to your reply.
Dany

Default Criminal stole a legit ebay account from someone

Changed the email names, phone number etc etc. Then went and listed phony items to try to rip people off. Their favorite way is to use western union which has like zero fraud protection. They want the money that way so it leaves like no trace.

Default Via Bronzetti, Padova, Italy eh?

Small world indeed.

I was born and spent the first 23 years of my life in Via Beato Pellegrino in Padova (Italians don't move nearly as often as Americans), which is approximately 1/2 mile away from Via Bronzetti. It can be said that I know that area like the palm of my hand.

One additional note: a search of www.paginebianche.it (the Italian equivalent of www.whitepages.com) yielded no Mr. Parossi in Via Bronzetti.

Buy with confidence!
