Do not fall for this CA Fords!! She was selling a 97 Land Rover Defender (Blue is 27-30k.) for $4600.00. This is a craigslist scam!! You will never see your money or vehicle. Pivitol Payments is aware of this scam. Wish I could meet these jerks in an alley. Feel free to e-mail her and I am going to spambot her e-mail account. Hope she likes 3000 e-mails for porn a day.

The 1997 Land Rover Defender is located in Greenville SC, and it is in
perfect condition, with no need for additional repairs, no scratches,
dings, special marks whatsoever. It has 48,280 miles and the VIN is:
SALDV3240VA101036. It has a clear title ready to be signed and notarized

on your name. I have the pictures hosted on the net and you can see them

at: http://s263.photobucket.com/albums/ii124/DEFENDERD_90/?start=all
The price is $4,650 including shipping costs anywhere in the continental

US. There are no other costs regarding this transaction. The transaction

will be closed only through a 3rd party and this way we will both be
protected. My time is limited due to my job in the army so I decided to
use a service from Pivotal Payments. To begin the transaction I'll need
your full name and shipping address. I will forward the details of our
transaction to Pivotal Payments and then you will receive an invoice
from them. The car will be shipped insured to your location with DAS and

you will have 5 days for inspection.

Thank you,
Rebecca Wallace

Don't even get mad. They will do this all of the time. Just try to make them lose their time and mess with them. Make something up. Is fun when Scammers e-mail me that they don't want to do business with me anymore.

check this out, you will laugh you a** off:

Follow up-

Pivitol Payments just called me and said they have gotten 100s of calls about this scam. It is based out of England and/or Nigeria and to cease and disist and communication with the seller if you are contacted. They have started an online investigation and think they have found the group doing thios scam.
