I've had about 15 fraud offers so far, and it's picking up getting 1 or 2 a day, once I respond that I want cash or they have to wait till the check clears both banks I never hear from them again. I'm taking my posting off cars101, I think thats where most of them are coming thru..
Here's the latest from George Lucas.

Here's George's response (or read)..
BTW, I didn't send him any pictures.

Dear Dave,

Thanks for your Response to my email regarding the interest in your vehicle.I'm satisfied with the price which is $6000 and also with the description and present condition.So after consulting and making arrrangements with My Agent and has decided that the Certified Check of $9500 would be issued out to you.All you just have to do is,you deduct the cost of the vehicle which is $6000 and transfer to the rest of the funds to My Associate $3500 through Western Union Money Transfer.The $3500 would be transfered to My Associate who would settle & make all necessary arrangements with the Internation Courrier Agency who are to come for the pickup and also be in charge of the shippment.All you just have to do for payment issument is to provide me with the below information so that the payment can be issued out to you :
Full Name.........
Full address............. Not a P.o Box Address
City...............
State.............
Country..........
Zipcode............
Cell/office/home phone number..............

After all the above information has been provided,the payment would be made sent to you as soon as possible.thanks for the pics too they are very nice.I'll be expecting to read from you soon with all the informations.

Thanks and Kind Regards...

George Lucas..

This is definitely a fraud. Any time you have to switch money around, STAY AWAY from it.

i would reply:

"Dear George Lucas,

i don't wish to handle the transaction the way you described. i would rather it go this way:

forward a money order in US funds to MyAssociate. Steven Spielberg, who will then notify MyPartner, Quentin Tarantino. that the money is recieved. MyHandler, Alfred Hitchcock, will then convert the money to spanish doubloons and pay a fee to MyAssistant, Francis Ford Coppola. Mr. Coppola will then check the phase of the moon, and if it is full, he will send the doubloons to me via cargo ship. MyNemesis, Stanley Kubrick, will then deliver the car to you, along with a severe beating, courtesy of MyAgent, Woody Allen. if i take too long responding to you e-mail, it is because i will be down at the FBI training facility trying out my new assault rifle. let me know, OK?"

Wow the same thing happened to me back in January when I was selling my Accord. I couldn't figure out why someone in England would want my car. It sounds like the same exact scam because they were going to send me a cashiers check for the full amount plus shipping where I would have to deduct shipping....etc.. Well I didn't wait for the check anyways, I sold it to the first person who saw it. Sounded to good to be true, and I guess it was. BTW the guys name was Gideon Moore and his email was goldfly080@yahoo.com.
