I responded to a craigslist ad for a truck. I was told to send the money Via Western Union thru Google checkout. I sent the money and now I received an email requesting 2000.00 more for insurance. Can I get the money back that I sent in the first place and just cancel the order or did I just get completely scammed and lose all of it? I have all the information: emails, western union name and information, etc. Please let me know asap, the seller does not think I know this is a scam and is still trying to complete the order. Now would be a good time for you to step in and help me!!! Thank you!

  • Yep, definetely a scammer. Here is the email that I received from him/her regarding a F-150 truck that was listed on Craigslist in Fort Collins, CO. It was listed at a price much too good to be true.

    Hello,

    Thank you for your inquiry regarding my truck. It is in perfect condition, there's not even a scratch or any dents on it. Everything about it is in perfect condition. I have clear title for it, no liens or loans.
    The truck is priced to sell quickly and the final price that I'm asking for it is $3,000 including shipping and handling costs. My husband died in Iraq 3 months ago and me and my daughter decided to sell the house and move to my sister's. The truck reminds us very much of my husband but we finally understood that we have to move on with our lives. Although my husband will have his place in our hearts forever. I can't afford to take days off my work for this sale so i'm trying to sell it online.
    If you are really interested in purchasing the truck please reply to this email and i will provide further instructions regarding payment and delivery.

    Regards!
