Just got me a sweet deal

**Marine_mike** · 06-14-2009, 23:14

I just won a 1988 waggy with a 360 on ebay for $350. it has 137,000 miles in it. I definitely want the 44's, but I am just wondering how easy it would be to drop in the 360 into my YJ. But I am stoked. Now all I have to do is get my buddy to go an pick it up for me. I'm back in Iraq... so it might be a bit hard for me...lol

I got the email from the seller of the jeep.

Hi marine_mike26, My name is Kurt Jackson, I am the seller of the Item#: 330336235782, 1988 jeep grand wagoneer station wagon 4x4 360 project, writing you because I have to congratulate you for your winning bid of US $350.00. Unfortunately, after the listing closed I got Notifications from eBay and Paypal and I must warn you that my account is unavailable and you cannot pay for the item through Paypal as usual. Item Location: Huron, Ohio, United States. The item will be shipped from this location by one of my employees, I must collect the payment because I am the seller, now I am located in United Kingdom because I have to sign a contract with a company and I know the mainspring of the paypal problem was caused because my account was accessed from different locations, while traveling to UK. Anyway we have a solution, payment approved by eBay for this transaction is Western Union Money Transfer so you can send the payment in a few minutes.

To send a wire transfer you need my full name: Kurt Jackson and country: United Kingdom. You will deduct the transfer fees from the total and you will send the remaining amount. Select WU Service: Money In Minutes. If you want to send the payment with your credit card check the following link for more details:

https://wumt.westernunion.com/WUCOMW...ToSendMTOnline

If You want to send the payment with cash you have to visit a western union location and fill a form with my full name, city and country. The city is London.

MOST IMPORTANT: WHEN THE PAYMENT HAS BEEN MADE PROVIDE ME THE FOLLOWING: MTCN# (MONEY TRANSFER CONTROL NUMBER), YOUR FULL NAME ON FILE WITH WESTERN UNION AND EXACT AMOUNT SENT. As you take these steps, please be aware that you may need to repeat the instructions provided above if the payment is received with errors, missing letters or numbers.

PS: Just is case... If you have already made the payment through Paypal your account will be credited back automatically when my paypal account is re-established. Waiting your confirmation with a copy of the receipt from western union. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Please let me know if you need further assistance. Thank you!

What an asshat!

well, i hope you got in touch with ebay to make sure this ass hat dosent screw up your ebay account info with bad feedback.

and hopefully you havent already sent him the money on paypal...

**Jeffb_79** · 06-15-2009, 16:54

Um.... scam. Don't send him any money. If you've already sent money through paypal, file a claim immediately to try to re-coup the loss.
This is a common scam.
