Saw an AD in craiglist for a car sale. I texted the person and then she told me to send her an email. She then sent me some pictures of the car with this following email:Thanks for asking, my 2010 Honda CRV EX-L is still for sale. is automatic, FWD, 2row seats, and great shape, the maintenance done on proper time intervals (my mechanic look over it before i post the ad). also has 68,555K miles, clear title, 2.4L I4 engine! I’m selling it because my boy of only 25 died 3 months ago in a car accident, a drunk driver hit him and his fiancee. He was with fiancee’s car, coming to our home at his little brother birthday. The car belonged to my son and brings me bad memories, that’s the reason i sell it so low ($2,000).
Me and my husband travel a lot with our job so we decide to make the deal thru’ eBay Protection Program because they protect both of us and also offer you 5 days inspection period. All documents, title and bill of sale on your name will come along with the car (we had another deal with eBay and everything went smoothly)

If you are interested let me know, Sarah
THEN: she sent me this after asking her when it was possible to go see the car:

Hi again ,the car is located at eBay warehouse in Saint Louis, MO. It’s already sealed and waiting to be delivered anywhere (i will pay the shipping so all you have to pay is just $2,000). Like i said, we will use eBay Protection Program so we can both be protected and insured. the car will arrive at your address in 3 days and you will have 5 days to inspect it. Once you inspected it and decided to keep it, you will confirm your decision to eBay and only then eBay will re-route the money in to my account. But, if by any reason, you won’t be satisfied you will ship it back on my expense and they will give you a full refund. In this way you will be able to inspect the vehicle before committing to buy and as you see I WON’T GET ANY MONEY UNTIL YOU WILL SEE AND TEST THE CAR!
If you want to start the transaction with eBay just reply here your full name and delivery address then eBay will contact you by e-mail with an invoice and explain better the whole process…thanks!

P.S. please let me know if you want to know more about the steps of transactio.
