this is the kinda scam that people fall for too much. just remember this is 2007 and if something sounds too good to be ture than most likely it is. no body will even slap you for free now a days so gettin a car for a price is out of question. report this fucker. and since we are on the topic, i have noticed a huge increase in scam's on ebay lately, i mean they are gettin out of control. new ones listed every frekin day and i only search under Tl's or Cl's so i can amagin how many total there are

it's a kind of scam that will leave you broke.

The listing is in Detroit, the number in CA.
I'd stay away.

The ad was removed. So for those that didn't find it in time, what was the ad for? A $30 car?

Probably due to me! I just saved someone $9,998!

It was a 2008 Infiniti G35 coupe (the 2008 version is supposedly going to be a G37), hence it was a scam. It was being sold for $9,998.
