Location: Dubach, LA | Saw a total steal of a trailer yesterday. Here are the two communications.
1st email:
Hello,
I appreciate your interest in buying my horse trailer. The trailer is in immaculate condition, rust free, no damages, the title is under my name, free of any liens or loans on it.
I am selling it at this price ($7,500) because I just finished the divorce with my husband. I owned this trailer after my divorce and I need the money so I'm trying to sell it as soon as possible.
Right now, I've moved to my parents in London, United Kingdom and I prearranged the deal with a shipping and escrow company before leaving to the UK. The trailer was left in their custody and stored to a warehouse in Tulsa, OK.
For more information and pictures follow this link:

Everything looks like pictures show's. Let me know if you're interested to purchase and I will explain the entire procedure.
Hi again,
First please let me explain you the process of this sale and afterwards you can decide if you want to go with it or not.
Like i said in my first email i am in UK now, however my presence won't be necessary as I prearranged the deal with a shipping and escrow company. I left it at their warehouse before leaving to the UK. They are supervising the entire sale process from payment, shipping with a inspection period (up to 14 days), title transfer service or/and (if needed) returns and refunding. The shipping isn't a problem, is a service offered for me as a customer (it's free of charge for you). You will receive the trailer along with all the documents. The trailer is paid in full and will come with the title (clear title), bill of sale signed by me and all the papers that you need to register it under your name.
As for the payment we can start a transaction through the freight company where I'm already registered. You will have to register too on their web site, sign into your account and start a new transaction as a buyer. They act as a third party and will protect both of us in this transaction. I won't get paid till it arrives with the title and you inspect it.
Email me back with a shipping name and address if you'd like to buy the trailer...
Thank you

| SCAM! That trailer is too nice to be priced at $7,500. |
|
| |
|
| 1. out of the country
2. it's been left with a shipping or storage company
3. no phone number to contact them
4. way, way underpriced
SCAM
IF they did get divorced and IF they did move out of the country, at that price, they could have easily sold that trailer before they moved. The old saying "if it's too good to be true, then it usually is" has been around for a long, long time. |
