Ask where you can go see it.

It wont be anywhere near where the ad is posted, and they will ship it to you free because a friend/relative/army member will do them a favor.
They will want you to pay through a fake ebay motors site.

The car is at the
shipping company in Canada, ready to be delivered. The shipping cost is included in the
total price of the car!
You have 5 days to test it and inspect the car.So if you want to
make this deal I need the following details from you:
full name and address,shipping address,phone #
After I will have all this details I will forward them to eBay Motors and I will proceed the
order. eBay Motors will contact you with all the details that you need to complete this deal
and also to see that I am covered by them and that I am legit seller.
Waiting your email
with the requested details.
Thanks!
Unfortunately I can't see any way to mess with them...


ASk where in Canada is it? Then whatever they say (Montreal, etc) say you have a buddy who is willing to go down and have a look/drive for you.

Then tell him you need him to verify himself so he needs to take a picture of himself. But to make sure its him he needs to put a fish on his head, and a loaf of bread to his lips.
