Hi ,

Thank you for contacting me regarding my truck. I am a 25 years old single mom with 2 kids. I am now in a divorce
with my ex and I am in desperate need of money to pay the mortgage on my house.First of all I want to tell you
that the truck is in perfect condition, and the price includes all the shipping costs and insurance so you will
not have to pay any extra charges if you can't come to Santa Rosa, CA to make the deal.
My brother works at a shipping company and he can handle the shipping for me with no charge.

Mileage: 68,061 miles, 4x4
Year 2003. The truck has a Clean Tittle which will come along with it.I am in Santa Rosa, CA. The truck is with me
here and it's in a perfect condition. It's a great truck, I am devastated that I have to sell it but I really need
the money to pay my mortgage or I'll lose my house, so I decided to sell it for $2,900.
Tell me if there is anything else you would like to know about the truck.
Thank you for the interest you have shown in purchasing the truck.
Please reply,
Thank you

Nicole.......


sounds like BS to me but i figured id ask to see if any of you guys live out there and would be able to go over and take a look and see if it is a real deal or not. i can have the money to you to go pay for it in a day IF it is.

thanks guys.

I found a Jeep LJ with the same writeup about two years ago. I never went past that email. I live in Cali but with two kids it's hard to get anywhere. Best of luck.

I call bluff. If she had the title she could sell it easily for way more than that.

And how convenient she knows someone that works for a shipping company.

This is a scam. I almost got caught in one in my younger days.
