For those of you that have experienced this sort of (what I consider a scam) listing, this may be just reinforcement, but it may help some others that are more trusting. Below is a recent back and forth emails after finding a nice looking tractor on Craigslist for a very low price. My Craigslist searches are usually local, so I was surprised when I discovered the tractor was not anywhere near local for me. She (he) sent me some really nice pictures of the tractor too. After the second email, I was pretty sure this was a scam, however, I strung her (he) along to see how I was going to be stung. Someone in Omaha may be getting a deal in a tractor though, but I doubt it.

Hey,
I'm interested in your tractor. Does it have a Cat. 1 three point hitch on the rear and a 540 PTO? Does everything work? Anything need fixing?

Hey,
Where is it located?
Hi again,
The tractor belong to my husband but unfortunately he passed away 3 months ago.The kubota is at the shipping center in Omaha, Ne and from there will be shipped to my buyer's address. Right now I'm in a military base. We are training, getting ready for Afghanistan. I am only allowed to check my email twice a day. We have to stick to e-mail for now. Hope you can understand. Like I already said, the delivery process will be managed by me. I think I can have it there at your home address within 3-4 days. If you decide when you receive the tarctor that for any reason you don't want to keep it then you will send it back on my expense. I need to know if you are interested so I can ask eBay Motors to send you the details on this deal. You will also find in the invoice from them the eBay Support Department phone number where you can call for more details ! If interested please include in your next email your contact info for eBay (full name, shipping address and phone number), so we can get the ball rolling.
Thank you and god bless you!!
Hey,
The only B2710 I can find on ebay is in PA.
Let me explain you in a few words how the deal will take place: ebay will be involved as a third party - this means you will send the money to an ebay agent and they will hold your money until you receive and test the tractor. You will have 5 days to test and inspect the tractor and if it doesn't look like you expect you can return it back on my expense, but I assure you won't be the case. In case you accept the tractor you must contact ebay and ask them to release the founds to me. This is how they protect both parties. If you want to move forward or wish to find out more details about this deal please send me your full name and shipping address so I can open a case with ebay and declare you as buyer. As soon as I have your details i will ask ebay to contact you regarding this deal.
Hey,
I'm already set up as a buyer on eBay. All you have to do a place the ad on eBay. However this third party holding my money for me is not going to work. I want to look at and touch the vehicle before I transfer any funds to anyone. If the tractor is in Omaha then that is too far away. Sorry.
