I'm sure glad I spotted this thread. I've been trying to play with this scammer to get more information out of him or her. What should I say in my next email? Here is the dialogue thus far:

Mary Ann,
This is the only email address I have. It is my work email address so I know it is working fine. Purchase protection is available for free from eBay. Secondly, eBay takes a fee from the amount I pay you if we go through them so you'll receive less money if we use eBay. Let's get this done.

FWIW : Google that address and check sattelite imagery :
http://maps.google.com/maps?oi=map&q...wood,+NJ+08884
and it comes back and looks like a residential area ( maybe in a not so good part of town) , so you may want to drive by if in area.

When an add states something like this .."...
including shipping costs anywhere in the continental US," and it is for something like a CAR that can easily be over $1,000 ! Something is radically WRONG unless the car is grossly overpriced. Also telling a complete stranger that you are willing to meet them and have $3,800 in CASH may not always be a wise idea especially if they are very hard to get in touch with.
