Type of a scam Online Purchase
The add for a 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee popped up on my Facebook. I checked into it using the email address. After quite a few emails with this person "Laura Davis" I was told she was awarded the vehicle in a divorce settlement, had the vehicle in storage and needed the money as she didn’t need the vehicle and was being deployed. "She" couldn’t call because of limited access to check emails once a day. Vehicle is old , but looked too good, then to sweeten the deal, they offered shipping! on am $1800 purchase. Told them i deal face to face in cash. Finally thought Id play along and let them send me a marketplace invoice. I called the number, someone picked up instantly, when I questioned them they hung up. I called back, no answer, i used another phone, no answer.
