I see those types of ads everyday craigslist. Have you ever checked out facebook market place? On there, you will see several adds from all over the country using the same pictures.

Congratulations, you found a tractor selling at about ten percent (or less) of its likely value. I'm sure you could carry on a nice correspondence with "Amanda" who would even offer to ship it free. If a deal looks too good to be true it usually is. Keep shopping.

The tractor in the first ad linked is shown with some different verbage in my local Craigslist. It seems like a lot of folks are selling "hydrostate" tractors lately.
Yesterday I used a throw away email address and offered "Amanda" $4k plus more money to ship it to me. It's fun to mess with scammers every now and then.

Sometimes all they are looking for is an email address or phone number they can sell to other scammers

What?!?!?! Old Kubota's have ABS and air bags? How come my new tractor doesn't have that?

Not trying to be disrespectful, but why post this stuff here? CL has a spam reporting link. Things I’ve thought fraudulent are usually removed in a matter of hours.

Nothing to suspect at all. ANY time there is a gmail email address in the ad, is it 100% guaranteed to be a scam.

I was thinking the same thing. Just picked up a pretty new 28 hour BX2380 and I cannot find the airbags. If I slam on the brakes it doesn't feel like ABS to me either.
