Stupid Craigslist Scammers

[Gemini]

I find these scammers so hilarious. I was on craigslist a couple days ago looking at some bimmers and came across a sexy black 02 5 series but the seller was asking $4000 buy it now which made me laugh and cried BS. so i felt like fucking with him so i sent him an email telling him I'm interested and wanted to know why it was so cheap. Here is his response....

Hello and sorry for my delay,

So if you decide on buying the car, I want the deal closed only through eBay's Safe Purchase program. You will make the payment to eBay and they will hold the money until you receive the car. ONLY AFTE R you receive the car and you inspect it, eBay will release the payment to me, in this way we are both protected. I signed up for US military forces and I was sent here with my department for peace maintenance.I am located in London,United Kingdom 2 months ago, my wife moved here, with me and brought the car with her, but now we have to sell it back in the United States, because we can't drive it here because we can't register it here; it has US specs and everything, and registering it here in Europe will take for ever. My final price on it is US 4,000 $. If you will take it for this price, I am willing to handle the shipping .It will be shipped from here by plane with US Air Military Cargo so it will not cost me anything. You will get it to the nearest airport in your area and then it will be trucked forward to your place. Please get back to me asap if you decide to buy, and include in your e-mail your full name and address where you want it shipped so I can start the deal w ith eBay. You will receive all the transaction payment and shipping details from them.
Regards!
P.S. If you need more pics just ask!!!

no dont!..that'll let the seller know that the "buyer" knows it's a scam n crap..and it'll just make scammers think of another way to make their future sells sound more realistic.

For example as a scammer....Now i know that theres no such thing as an Ebay safe purchase program...i'll just ...YOU get the idea...

EDIT:...Ask the "Sgt" about his military info like background, what battalion, how long he's served..shit like that. And if any former military guys on here says he's an actual sarge..then we'll see! also ask for pics of him in uniform and his base...and wife! tahahaa see if this scammer is up to the challenge in finding photos off the net and impersonate.

Tell him you will buy his wife.

[Gemini]

Here is how the process works:
- you give me your full name and shipping address,

If the car is not like described you will have to ship it back in 30

It's too bad it's a scam, that's a nice BMW in those pics. I wonder if he realizes he referred to the same service thing as two different names, first he referred to it as Ebay Safe Purchase program, then he referred to it as Ebay Vehicle Purchase Protection.
