We got a call yesterday asking what we thought about a GREAT deal on a Jayco trailer. Only $2,500 for a big 2006 unit on eBay with free shipping. The book value appeared to be over $12,000! What a deal! Just one problem, it was a phishing scam. If you had paid $2,500 you would have never heard from them again. The web site was an eBay look alike, not really eBay. Upon investigation, I found the same bargain on Craigslist throughout the country. Many of the sites had alreay flagged the information as a phishing scheme.
Many bluegrass'ers are campers and often looking for great deals. If it is almost too good to be true ...

I found a similar one a few weeks ago and contacted the owner because it was a good deal, and was just a few miles down the road (found it on craigslist). Turns out the guy supposedly just moved to another state (camper was with him) but he'd ship it to me, yadda, yadda, yadda. Can you say "SCAM"???
