this persons purchase process Hi,

The bike is already at the shipping company in Ocala, FL sealed and ready to be shipped. I'm very busy with my job so this is the reason why I chose to sell my bike over the internet. I have a contract with eBay so this deal must go through them. According with the eBay you have 5 days from the time you will receive the bike to inspect it and decide if you want to keep it or not. Here is how it will work:
First of all I will need the following details from you: full name and full shipping address; After I will receive the details from you, I will forward them to eBay so they will process your info, and they will send you the invoice. In the invoice you will receive the details on how to make a refundable payment.
eBay will contact me and release the shipping to you. After you receive the bike you will have 5 days to test it, verify and do whatever you need to the bike. If you decide to keep it, then I will receive the payment from eBay .
If you will decide that you will not buy the bike, eBay will refund the money and I will have the shipping company come down to pick up my bike.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 with eBay. You will receive all the transaction payment and shipping details from them. I look forward to hear from you.
Best Regards,
Carla
I am very intrested in your motoor cycle and am happy to use ebay or pay pal to finalize the purchase shipping is of concern to me I personaly would rather come to florida and pay in cash and ride the bike home or arrange my own shipping. You now have my email address and my ph # is 608-576-4725 could you send my your item # on Ebay so I can look it up again as it is no longer on craigs list----- Original Message -----From:To:Sent: Saturday, October 02, 2010 10:03 AMSubject: Re: 2006 Harley-Davidson Softail FLSTFI ($2910)Hello,
The bike is located in Ocala, FL and I am selling it at this price ($2910) because i
just finished the divorce with my husband. The divorce is finished and I own this bike.
I work as a dealer on a cruise ship and i want to sell it because I need money for
other things. This bike is in excellent working condition, no scratches, flaws or any
kind of damage, slightly used, in 100% working and looking conditions and comes with a
clear title ready for transfer. From the beginning you have to know that for the payment
I request only secure pay, I prefer the payment to be done using eBay services. Since
i am working most of my time, and divorced I want the deal closed only through eBay's
Buyer Protection Program in order for me and you to be 100% protected. The final price
that I want for this bike is $2910. If you will take it for this price, I am willing to
handle the shipping. 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
with eBay. You will receive payment and shipping details from them.
I will wait your answer very soon only if you are interested to buy because i don't have
any free time to waste.
Best Regards,
Ok whats wrong with it if nothing and your serious so am I

I am sorry for both of to say - yeah this is a scam. I am in the proccess of buying the same exact bike (same VIN, same price, same photobucket picture link), but I am buying it from Monique Harris who is recently divorced and is selling it for quick cash as she is a cruise ship casino dealer. My last e-mail was word - for - word exactly the same as yours... Thank you for posting it - I will NOT be sending her any money.

Yes, it is a scam. We just found this on California Craigslist. eBay's vehicle protection plan only works if you purchase the vehicle thru eBay!!!! Everyone please remember this.
