Exclusive offer for cheap vehicles!

Several times a year, we like to offer How To Make A Dollar readers very important and exclusive information about great money making opportunities.  Several months ago we shared with you how to make money by helping the Nigerian Royal Family transfer funds to the U.S.  We recently came across a new opportunity.  This opportunity is how to get a great deal on a cheap vehicle through Craigslist.

On craigslist there is a section where people can buy and sell cars.  Occasionally there are GREAT DEALS!

This truck was on Craigslist for $4,600


Even if you are not an expert on cars, trucks, anything with wheels on it... $4,600 for this truck is obviously a GREAT DEAL!

Here is a step by step plan on how to secure this GREAT DEAL!

Step 1: email the person about the truck and make sure it is for real


To: sharonfennell@msn.com
Subject: F250 truck
Date: Sun, 18 Apr 2010 23:22:55 -0400

Sharon,

I saw your listing for an F250 pickup truck on craigslist.  http://washingtondc.craigslist.org/doc/ctd/1693646109.html

Is $4,532 the correct price?  How many miles does the truck have on it?  Is the truck still available?  This looks like a great truck.

Thanks,
A


Step 2: Receive email confirmation about the vehicle.

2005 Ford F250 - 141,000 Miles

First of all I want to thank you for your interest for my car. I sell it at this price ($ 4600 ) because i just finished the divorce with my husband.The divorce has finished 6 months ago and the car is mine now.After the divorce I was forced to buy a new house. Following the financial crisis I can not afford to pay the bank and I decided to sell the car.This car is in excellent working conditions, no scratches, flaws or any kind of damage, slightly used in 100% working and looking conditions and comes with a clear title.
From the beginning you have to know that for the payment I request only secure pay, I prefer the payment to be done using eBay services.
We will use a safe payment method because I am affiliated at eBay and I have a purchase protection account.The final price that I want for this car is $4600.I will pay for shipping and handling.
If you are interested in buying it please provide me your full name and address so I can initiate the deal through eBay.
I will wait your answer(if you are interested to buy) very soon.

Step 3: Become suspicious when you see the exact same listing (same pictures, same description) listed in another part of the country.  Email the person back and ask them if it is a scam.  They will tell you if it is.  If they don't tell you it is a scam, you can assume it is not a scam.

I found this listing on craigslist.  http://omaha.craigslist.org/cto/1681719984.html

It has the exact same pictures and description as your listing.  Do you have this truck?  Are you just using someone else's pictures as an example?  Is this a scam?


Step 4: Don't be alarmed or worried when the same person emails you the exact same email except about a different car and use a different name.  Most likely they had to change there name because of the divorce they are going through.

Step 5: Tell the person selling the car you can pay cash for the vehicle but you would like to test drive it first.  If they don't want cash and don't want you to drive the car most likely there is a very reasonable explanation.

From:Sharon Fennell (sharonfennell@msn.com)

The car is already at the shipping company in Bismarck,North Dakota ready for shipping. I have a contract with eBay so this deal must go through them. I'm very busy with my job and I'm out of town so I can't meet in person with you so this is the reason why I chose to sell my car over the Internet. According with  the eBay you have 5 days from the time you receive the car to inspect it and decide if you want to keep it or not.
Here is how it will work:
1.First of all I will need  the following details from you:
- Full Name
- Full Shipping Address
2. After I will receive the details from you, I will forward them to eBay.
3. After they will process your info, they will send us both invoices. The invoice will send you the details on how to make a refundable payment.
4. eBay will contact me and I will ship the car to you. After you receive the car you will have 5 days to test, verify and do whatever you need to the car. If you will buy, then I will receive the payment details from eBay so that I can pick up the money.
5. If you will decide that you will not buy the car,  eBay will refund the money and I will have the shipping company come pick up my car. If you wish to make the transaction, please send me the necessary info so that we can proceed. I look forward to hear from you.

Thank you 

Step 6: Don't be alarmed when you see the exact same email under the "examples of scams" section on craigslists Frequently Asked Questions on http://www.craigslist.org/about/scams
