Latest scam uses www.Online-Yard-Sales.com - The 1947 (2024)

Got this email from a scumbag scammer, read from bottom up, sure would like to meet one of these fellows in person and convince them of the error of their ways. In the mean time, I reported him to att.net for unlawful activities. You'd think the FBI would pursue these guys but they say just report it to your local Sheriff. What's sad is people fall for these scams.

Hi,
I'm the original owner and it's in excellent condition (mechanical and cosmetically) NO issues. There are no dings, dents, road chips of any sort. The interior is impeccable (i do not smoke). I can assure you will not be disappointed.The title is in the Online Yard Sales Stores possession as well and it is already signed by me and notarized so they will be responsible for the title transfer. Oh...and the title is clear. Like i said before i'll explain the Online Yard Sales Stores concept, their website is ( www.Online-Yard-Sales.com ). Yard Sales is a chain of online drop off stores. I left the car in their possession when i left and intended to sell it when i got back (if you ask why i'm selling it now when i'm not around), but the wedding costs too much and i need to sell it now to help my daughter get married. They will handle the shipping and the payment. If you want to purchase this, you must register on their website, they send you an invoice with the transaction details and payment instructions and you send the payment to them. They receive the payment and start the shipping process. You receive the car and you have 10 days to inspect it and see if it's exactly as described (it will come with 10 days return policy). If you decide to keep it, you let them know and they will transfer the payment to me, if you decide to return it, they will give you a full refund back and return the item on my cost. So you can be sure the car is exactly as described because i wouldn't sell something that i know it will be returned and loose extra money. The shipping cost is already included in the price listed on craigslist so you don't have to worry about that. The process is very simple, it probably looks a little complicated from what i explained but it's not and for a better understanding of how their service works you can check out their "Selling on eBay and Craigslist" and "How It Work" pages. I would advise you to read these pages before you register so you can be sure you understand how the process works. Let me know if you are still interested and if you have questions please ask, no problem. Also, if you don't want to register on their website for any reason, you can send me your full name and shipping address and i will forward it to them, but it's better if you register yourself.

Regards Patrick

Hi,
It's still for sale but before i start answering your questions, i`ll have to let you know that i left town a few days ago because i have to help my daughter organize her wedding, and i may stay here a while, but this is no problem because i`ll sell it through Online Yard Sales Stores. I will not require the money up front because you haven’t seen/inspect the vette yet. I guess you used Online Yard Sales before, if you didn`t let me know because i met people that never used it and i will explain how it works in detail. Also let me know if you have other questions.

Thank you
Patrick
