Dear Cleveland FBI,
I wanted to report some useful info on the Craigslist Auto Ad Internet Scam that utlilizes a fake Ebay and fake Google to mirror a legit paying site which is really a phishing site for financial info of "buyer."

Even though I've known all along this entire thing was fraud, I had them provide a recent Ebay cert for a car I was supposedly to buy online sight unseen.  I convninced them by email I was very confused and needed to speak to a "representative." After much back and forth and refusal to talk on the phone, finally someone called and I was able to extract the following phone info from caller ID plus an 800 number to the same deal when I complained to the "rep" I couldn't "afford to make long distance calls."  Lastly, the various fa fax numbers below are from all the different fake Ebay docs they've sent me over the months in my attempt to "trap them" for info to report to you.

This guy is trying to scam me to, but it didn't add up, so after searching some numbers I found this link. He is telling me he's a military man, using the email: "J. Christopher Lewis" <jchrislewis@att.net

Here is one of the scam emails:

I will notify Google Checkout and they will register you as my buyer. You will receive all the details about my car, me as a seller and a verified member with them and all the info regarding the payment and shipping.I have a contract with Google Checkout so this deal must go through them.
P.S. The car is located at the military base (Fort Hood,TX), 160 miles from Mesquite,TX (DAS - Headquarters).
Shipping will be done by DAS and it will take 5 days top straight to your location.The 5 day door to door shipping is $1,180.00. and we will split for this..you will pay your half of $590 and me the other part..
After they will process your info, they will send you the invoice and the details on how to make the refundable payment.
You will be given a 5 days inspection period from the day you receive the car at home. If you decide to hold the car, then you will have to authorize Google Checkout to release the funds to me, and the transaction will be completed. If you will not be satisfied with the car, you will be able to send the car back through the same shipping company, and ask Google Checkout to return the funds to you. Though I am sure you will love the car and will not want to return it, it is good to know that you do have this second option available.
If you will decide that not buy the car,  Google Checkout will refund you the money and I will have the shipping company come pick up my car. If you wish to make the transaction, please send me the necessary info so that we can proceed. I look forward to hear from you.
