[Land-speed] Sample scam E-Bay e-mail

[Wester Potter]

My daughter found a 2001 Grand Cherokee for $9,000.  She told the 
seller she wanted the car.  In the meantime the location of the car 
moved by 700 miles.  They contacted her yesterday and instructed her to 
send a money order for the full amount to a bank in London, England.  
She suggested they try their scam on someone else and reported them to 
ebay.
