irishfield Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 He thinks he's on ebay and going to start accepting bids at that price! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanselena Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 Someone was doing this on ebay befor and it was a huge scam. They would tell people to send a huge deposit to hold it and the boat was never there. Be careful with these too good to be true deals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dondorfish Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 Alot of those adds are fake - send him an email and see if he responds - don't cost nothin' to ask. If a deal sounds to good to be true - it usually is!!! Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darsky Posted February 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 just noticed it on Toronto Kijiji. Definitely NOT kosher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassboy Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 Hmmm.....if he is in Montreal,, why does it look like it has Oklahoma registration numbers on it??? And if he actually is in Oklahoma, why is he trying to sell it in Montreal? Call me skittish but something just does not seem right there.....

forrest Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 Nothing in the add shows that it it certainly a scam. Very strange? Yes. Be suspicious? Yes. Send an email and get details, the ad does not say where the boat is or how the auction would take place. Maybe the seller lives in Oklahoma and he heard that Canadians are on a spending spree due to the good dollar. Maybe he is desperate to sell and things are selling so fast where he is. Maybe the boat is close than you think. forrest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassman Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 Scam. It will probably be removed in 1-2 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OhioFisherman Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 (edited) Some thing doesn`t seem right with the info, like mentioned the OK registration numbers also cause concerns. 17 foot boat with a 90, basically a bare bones package, but like 1/3 the price of new for a 3 year old? Strange? http://www.boattrader.com/listing/2005-SKE...-SX170-91561981 http://www.strikebass.com/ccboat7.htm Edited February 9, 2008 by OhioFisherman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue_Axela Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 Here is another great deal! http://london.kijiji.ca/c-cars-vehicles-bo...QQAdIdZ37692983 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue_Axela Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 If you notice the pics the seller put up. They are from Ebay. They have the little camera watermark at the bottom right corner. Ebay usually puts that watermark on images uploaded to their server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aniceguy Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 just saw one of these scams sell on ebay...... I noticed the guy wanted 500 s a deposit and then go from there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cranks bait Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 Wow. My boat that is 20 years older and a lot less power/toys cost more than that. It's deals like these that make me wonder how long this thing sat at the bottom of a lake? If you can see it in person and it is what it says, my guess is that it is already sold.

Garyv Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 If it sounds to good to be true than it probably is...I highly doubt it's for real and if it is make sure he has paid all the Canadian taxes on the Oklahoma boat as you will be when you go to register it....Naw ain't gonna happen because the deals a fake.

Badger Shark Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 Definitely a scam. Friends of ours almost got rooked on a similar scam involving a 24 ft trailor. They were going to put 3 grand down to hold it but at the last minute did some checking and found it to be a fraud scam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanselena Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 Here is another great deal! http://london.kijiji.ca/c-cars-vehicles-bo...QQAdIdZ37692983 I live in London and I can tell you with a certainty the grass isn't that tall in April as shown in the pics.
