Hello

I am interested in buying the High pinion Dana 60 front axle that you have placed for sell now, and I would want to enquire about the present condition of the above mentioned, as well as some detail about you. I expect this timely enough.

As for the payment, I would need you to get back in touch with the last asking price as I will be paying with a certified cheque.

Lastly, please forward to me your full company's (or house address, telephone and fax) details as I will subsequently prefer reaching you through these facilities.

Yours interestingly,
Raymond Griffiths

yo i had the same problem with scammers on craigslist - they even sent me fake checks and stuff! anyways do not give any info etc (my guy was very clear and punctual with emails but of course one thing lead to another....) and if the deal is too good to be true then forget it - you can submit online fraud etc to the FBI and GBI through their online task force web site - i was contacted within a few days and got the whole mess resolved
 
Yea, I put my Motorola E815 cell phone and car kit on craigslist, what a nitemare that was. On the other hand I just bought a 97ZJ, yup a grand for the wife, off craigslist on Friday and might be picking up another one on wednesday :D
 
I'm not sure if I made it clear, but I got this in a PM through this website, not Craigslist. Just putting it out there as a heads up in case anyone else gets one....
 
On another website I use, a guy started messing with them and asking for proof of them saying they are who they are, through pictures with them holding various objects

he got one guy to hold a sign, a watermelon, and have a shoe on his head.

NICE. Glad to see we can't keep it outta the pm boxes now.
 
I hope you realize that you're going to be personally responsible for a critical Dana axle shortage in Nigeria. The Nigerians are going to have to buy their axles from Iran, and one thing leads to another, and next thing you know.....:attom: ....:flame: .....and it will be all your fault for being such a skeptical tight-ass.
