yea, definitely a scam...all those emails have the same ring to them...."go through x transactions for our protection, and will be shipped by x company, blah, blah..." when it comes to the net...if it's too good to be true...it is..

Now all I need is your social security number... Scam for sure, if was like 15k, then I'd have a better chance believing it.

Sounds like another type of "Ebay" scam. If you don't have the money to do it right the first time, then hold off until you do.

That will quickly end the transaction and emails.

Yes It Is Definitely A Scam. Who The Hell Would Request Money For Their Own Protection. It's More Of The Consumer's Protection. I Almost Bought An Mr2 Turbo For Real Good Deal Like That But Glad I Call Western Union. Some Angel From Wu Advice Me It's A Scam. I Got Hold Of The Person Who Their Number Is Listed And Call The Person Who Also Said That She's Been Receiving Calls About A Car She Never Have!!!! Tell Your Friend Not To Buy.

Look again... the guy or lady don't even know the drive type of the EVO! It's an AWD not 2WD!!! Some dumba$$ Besides, I got mine with 29K miles for $25G and that EVO has around 10K miles for $8G??? It's obvious that it's not ledgit.
