straight6pwr Posted April 3, 2017 Report Share Posted April 3, 2017 and here's another response i've received various versions of from ads which are 'to good to be true'. this was for a camera for sale Quote Hey A guy just bought this from me, but I can tell you where I got it from. I just got 4 of these from here (scam/virus/ad website address) and I resold them for some extra money. The trick is to watch for bidding to slow down and then jump in. That's what I do and I win all the time. All the best Diana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patsbimmer1 Posted April 3, 2017 Report Share Posted April 3, 2017 @straight6pwr My wife and I fell victim to a scammer when we were looking for places to rent before we moved to Stoughton a few years ago. The guy had the balls to schedule a fucking viewing at the house. We drove from Greenfield to Madison and when we showed up it had a "Sold" sign over the listing which confused us since we were under the impression is was for rent. We called the listing agent and they confirmed that it was never for rent. We called the guy who set up the viewing and my wife ripped him a new one. Thankfully we never sent any deposit like he was requesting. Fucking scumbags. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HipMF Posted April 5, 2017 Report Share Posted April 5, 2017 if only it was gutted and had the dash removed it would be a sweet drift build. easily worth 3x that price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoungCR Posted April 6, 2017 Report Share Posted April 6, 2017 this would be a cool racing sim rig or if made driveable a ultimate lemons car. He can't be getting more than $500 in scrap. https://chicago.craigslist.org/chc/cto/6052021443.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Yeah, someone came out and smashed my wheel so hard from the side that it bent the control arms, and destroyed the entire profile of the wheel." no joke. The angle of how the wheel sits (bent inward on the bottom half) indicates rage drifting into a curb. The entire rim being ripped up on the edges indicates wheel was spinning, and on top of that the tires have obvious concrete scuffs all over them. It's painfully obvious that he's completely lying.
