this makes no sense!

[Edit] This is a scam, please don't place a bid on the truck or login because they'll likely steal your password!
I'll leave the link just in case someone wants to see what a scam looks like:

I originally posted this because I couldn't believe it. It turns out that I'm 100% sure its a scam. Why would this guy be selling his truck for 1/3 or less of what its worth?

When you pull up that auction number through ebay's search, you get a much higher price. Buy it now is at $14,900.

x2 the site is motorlistingsebay.com That is NOT eBay and the link should be deleted so no damage is caused!

Yes, delete it if its a scam please! I don't want to be responsible for anyone losing money!

I thought it was weird when it turned up on craigslist in the Montreal region. I emailed the guy asking about the truck and he wrote back sending me that link. It sounded a little fishy especially since the truck was in Texas and I looked up craigslist in Montreal. Is there any way to report these kinds of things? Maybe to Ebay or to craigslist? Also the licence plate on the truck in the is in plane view...maybe this could be reported to the local police down in Texas.

Re: this makes no sense!

The guy from craigslist is probably a scammer, but the link I posted is a legit ebay auction for the truck and the seller is from Houston, TX and has 100% positive feedback. If you're going to report it, report it to craigslist.

Update ^^^

Okay, I hate scam artists so I logged onto my ebay account and sent the following message to the seller in the link provided by DrKicker.

message:
hey guys...I recently saw an add for this truck on craigslist in Montreal. When I contacted the seller he got back to me and gave me the following link: http://www.motorslistingebay-carstru...dZViewItem.htm

That seems to be a fake ebay website and I'm pretty sure the seller was using pictures of your truck, your ebay item number and all your truck's info all for thousands less than you were asking. I think its a scam, I don't know if you are involved, but if you aren't it might be in your best interest to investigate and report this to Ebay!

Like I said I hate scam artists, as I've been scammed when buying a vehicle in the past. I hope someone gets to the bottom of this!

Re: this makes no sense!

It would probably be a good idea to edit your first post and add a warning not to log on thru the link incase it is going to get someone scammed.

Re: this makes no sense!

That auction is actually on a real ebay auction. But the site link at the top is a different (fake ebay) website. I search the item number on the real ebay.
