Found an advertisement on craigslist for a 2005 VW Jetta being sold for $1500. The ad has since been removed. When I inquired about the car and testing it, I received this email:
"Thank you for you interest! I'm selling it because I'm serving in Offutt AFB, Nebraska but I was promoted and transferred to Elmendorf AFB in Anchorage Alaska for a 3 years period, so I don't need it anymore at this time. Let me give you a few details about it: 2005 Volkswagen Jetta 5 door 2WD SPECIAL EDITION has only 95k miles on it, no accident history, clear title, no dents or dings and no scratches. Always adult driven and garaged, never abused or raced. If you are interested, it's still available for sale and the price, as stated in the ad, is $1,500.00, so if you have the money ready to buy it email me back.

Vehicle title - Clean
Inspection - Inspected
Body type - Sedan
Mileage - 95,944 miles
VIN - 3VWRG71K35M618443
Transmission - 5-Speed Automatic
Engine - 2.5L L5 DOHC 20V
Fuel type - Gasoline
Drivetrain - Front Wheel Drive

I look forward to hearing from you,
SSgt. Megan Hammons"

A subsequent email asking when was a good time to see the car, received this response:

"Hi again,

Thank you very much. As I've told you, at this moment I am in Offutt AFB, NE in a military base. I do a special training program each day and I am not allowed to get out of the unit or call whenever I want. The reason I'm selling this car way below market value is because don't have time for negotiations and I need money before October 10 for my next house in Anchorage. The car is already at our Offutt Air Force Base Library form Offutt AFB, NE crated and ready to go. Like I already said, the delivery process will be managed by me. I think I can have it there at your home address within 2-3 working days. It will come with a clear title and reg. I am a member of the eBay buyer protection program and using this service you will get a 5 days testing period after delivery. During that 5 days testing period I will not be getting any money. I need to know if you are interested so I can ask eBay to send you the details on this deal. If interested please include in your next email your contact info for eBay (full name, shipping address and phone number), so we can move forward with this transaction.

Thank you!!

At this time, I googled the name "Megan Hammons" and found the scambook reports. Will not pursue the Jetta further.
