Hi,
I want to buy a car online, however i am worried about scams. I am located in Canada and am looking to buy a car from the UK. All i have is pictures and an e-mail.
She told me that she will pay for the shipping costs via Lufthansa Air Cargo and the car will arrive at your door in 5-7 days tops.
QUOTE FROM EMAIL
The transaction will be done through eBay Purchase Protection for our own protection, no money first to me. I am registered with their secure trader department and they will handle the trade. Your funds will be 100% insured by eBay Purchase Protection until you will receive and inspect the item, and I will be sure that I will receive the payment.
You will have 15 days from the time you receive the car to inspect it and decide if you want to keep it or not.
END
Does it look legit?
thanks for feedback

Sorry, I forgot to mention I do not know the person and she posted this vehicle in classifieds. She is able to communicate through telephone.

SCAM
this person/these people is/are pestering ebay bidders all over. maybe he's/they're in a country that hates Americans and where it's legal to behave this way.

NEVER BUY ON-LINE WHEN IT SOUNDS LIKE THIS.
THIS IS A SCAM FROM THE GET GO.
