    Craigstlist experiences recently

    I've been doing a little shopping on craigslist lately and got these responses. The first is on a atv in waco and the second a camper in Odessa.

    RESPONSE TO QUESTION THE ATV
    Hi,
    There are 454 miles on it, the quad is in great condition, it has been properly maintained, never been abused in any way. It has clear title and the price I'm selling it for is $2900 which is including all the shipping charges.
    I live in waco and I work for Experience Mission, if you would like to checkout our website to give you some peace . The website is www.experiencemission.org it is a mission organization , i left the country with a mission in UK , i raise founds in local churches to buy food , clothes and medicament's so we can help the children's in our missions from poor countries.
    Anyway, there shouldn't be any problem, because I am using MoneyBookers services so I can sell the quad without difficulty.
    I left the quad at their warehouse (in US) before leaving to the UK. They will take care of the delivery. There's a 14 days return policy so you will have the chance to test, inspect and ride it before final decision.
    So if you want to purchase it, let me know and I will explain you how MoneyBookers works and how we can move forward.
    I am waiting your email.
    Thanks

    RESPONSE TO QUESTION ON CAMPER
    See more pictures attached .Look, I 'm now in Birmingham
    UK, and will be moving here permanently soon, but I am using Express Transports
    services so I can sell the camper from this far away. They have it in a storage
    place in Denver CO since I left . They will take care of the shipping ,
    paperwork, and everything else. Also, there's a return policy included. So
    if you want to buy it, please let me know and I will explain you how Express
    Transports works and how we can proceed. Please excuse me for my grammar use, I
    had a stroke six months ago and I'm recovering.

    Both look funny to me

    That first one looks like a new way of subliminal advertisement for his "Mission".

    The second looks like a new form of spam using classified ads instead of email.

    Good catch on those!

      Run away. If it is too good to be true, it isn't.

            Both are scams. First they were sending out nigeria addresses and now UK. If any of them say "I'm out of the country" It's most likely a scam.

                Tell him that by chance you are traveling to Denver next week and would like to take a look at the camper. Then watch him squirm as he has to make up an excuse why that would not be possible.

                    Scam, I came across one selling a Toyota Tacoma a couple months ago. Not exactly the same but similar.

                      If I knew I was gonna move overseas I would take care of that stuff ahead of time or at the very least have family do it. This is no doubt 100% scam.

                        Scam/ fraud.

                        On CL, all transactions should be face-to-face.

                        However, I just read an article somewhere (TBH?) about somebody going to an empty house to see a great deal on an HDTV, and getting robbed at gunpoint by somebody waiting in the house.

                        There's as many really-good and really-bad people in the world, you have to be careful.

                        The safest way on CL to sell is to have whatever you have already in the driveway when somebody comes over, so they don't see the inside of your garage and what you own.

                          I have a brother in the Denver area. I sent the guy an email asking for the address so that I can have my brother look at it.

                            I listed 2 replacement heifers and had an email that "tim" wanted them.
                            The next email said to consider "it" sold, take it off of the listing and he will have his "mover" box and ship "it".
                            Oh, he needed all of my info to FedEx me a check.

                            I let CL know.

                            I have my camera ready when his mover comes to box and ship 2 600# heifers.
