Stolen evo or legit ? Anybody know the owner ?

So i found this black evo online 2010 gsr very clean and dirt cheap with everything working and clean lady claims it wAs her sons who died with his father in a car accident because of a drunk driver she claims shes in colombia so she cant sell it to me but has everything for some ebay "safe method" where its something like it gets delivered to me i have 10 days to try it or whatever if its not what she descriced the car gets sent back and i get my refund and some other **** i have alot of pics of it but no license plate or VIN car looks like it might have been worthy to be featured on here or a Mitsubishi page anybody seen it ? I posted a couple of pics i think they uploaded if they didnt let me know ill send again if possible or through instagram . ( im a eclipse 3g owner hopefully yall wont get on my *** for posting here ) just want to let the owner know people could be getting scammed and he doesn't know and if its legit ill buy the car (4k i what the lady wants)

Write her back with the following:

Why don't you get a real job instead of trying to steal from other people? How do you sleep with yourself at night you worthless pathetic pile of crap? You should do the world a favor and go play on the nearest freeway, at night, wearing all black. Actually you might hurt someone else... Go for self immolation instead, somewhere remote.

I doubt it is stolen. More like it doesn't exist. Easy enough to find a vin number and any number of photos online. Break contact and move on. The only worthy response is what Napalm posted above.

If you rush it you'll make a mistake. I almost did. I've been looking for several months and almost went with a 2013 with wayyyy less miles. But holding out netted me a newer car with much less in payments (and no down payment). The difference in monthly payments ended up being $100 cheaper with the 2014 I just got. You'll find one if you hold out for a bit. Lots of good cars for sale here too in the classifieds section.

$35,000 but cars here in Puerto Rico are a bit more expensive due to import taxes. New they were around $45k to $50k. Ford dealership here wanted $55k for the new Focus RS which is why I told them to F**K off and ended up getting an Evo again.
