Scammers make me SICK!

[WakeSurfCanada]

Hey Guys,

Just wanted to share a recent classified add that I couldn't help but reply to in order to find out what the story was.

Sure enough, its your usual "the XXXX (insert bike, sled, boat etc) that is priced substantially below market value. It is in perfect working condition but I am out of the country and it is in the custody of a shipping company and ready to be sold.I would like to got through ebay to sell this blah blah blah.

I have come across more than 1 of these type scenarios and it makes me sick to my stomach that someone would do this.

Here's the ad:

Here's the reply from the seller:

Hi,

This boat is in perfect working condition, the interior and exterior look great,no leaks,no dents,no rust.
It hasn't been in any accidents, the title is clean and clear. The shipping is included in the boat price. I am letting it go because I've moved to London,United Kingdom and importing it here it's too much. It is currently in Hazelton,BC in custody of a shipping company with all the papers necessary to sell, ready to be delivered to its new owner. I want to use eBay Vehicle Purchase Protection to close the deal because it is the safest way for both parties under these conditions.

I know there are a few people on hear from Canada and Ontario, please be careful, I would hate to see a fellow enthusiast loose any amount of money to one of these scumbags.

From my experiences if its to good to be true, it likely is. By all means I'm not trying to scare anyone away from a good deal, but in any case like the one presented, do you best to get all the info you can and I personally would never send any amount of money before seeing the item in person.

Rant over! haha Enjoy!
