I logged on to Craig's list for Baltimore to find a 2005 Airstream for sale for $4,900
Holy cow!! What a Deal!! That's about $10,000 under value!! This is too good to be true.
Yup, it's too good to be true. Here is the reply e-mail from Madrid, Spain, asking for a money transfer and the Craig's warehouse in Adamstown PA will ship it to me.
And I'm the queen of England's long lost daughter!

Hi,
Thank you for your interest in purchasing my trailer.First of all I must inform you that currently I'm in Madrid,Spain ,where I'm staying with my son and his wife.My son had a heart attack and needs a triple bypass,and this is why I decided to move here with my wife to help his wife to take care of him.He may not make it after operation so I have to stay here.
I want to sell the trailer because I don't want it here .The trailer is stored at CRAIG's Warehouse in Adamstown , PA .
The trailer is in good working condition with nothing mechanically wrong.
It was used only for a few times and it was always garaged.
The title is clear and is in my name; I have already signed a release for the title to be transferred.
You'll receive also all the papers required for registration.I'm the first owner of the trailer
After inspection,the Craig's experts agreed to hold and ship the trailer to the new owner.
The trailer will be shipped from the CRAIG's Warehouse on my expense,as soon as the payment is confirmed .
Payment:
The price for this trailer is $5000 USD ( Shipping Included ).
If you are interested to go ahead with this deal, please email me back whit any questions. I will accept ONLY BANK TRANSFERbecause is more safe.
Shipping:

you'll be able to return it in 7 days without paying anything and with full refund,of course.If you have other questions,
feel free to mail me back.Hope we'll close the deal.
Best Regards,

I thought I would do some searching and since I couldn't find a Craig's warehouse in Adamstown, PA I would have to agree with you. Have you thought of emailing the guy and telling him his warehouse doesn't exist? Could be interesting to see what his reply is. Of course, you would probably want to use an email that you wouldn't use very often. Better yet, report him to Craig's list since they are trying to crack down on people like this.
i already e-mailed a copy of this to abuse@craigslist.org. Hopefully they'll pull this bogus ad.
