Ross County, Ohio | good detective work. Everyone should due their due diligence. A friend of mine found a tractor for sale by owner in Pennsylvania not long after Craig's list started. He and his brother put 5K down on it and his brother hooked to their lowboy and headed out to get it. He calls back to tell his brother there is no tractor at this address. There wasn't a barn, a driveway, in fact no address match just fields. He goes to the nearest house and finds out he's something like the fourth person to show up for this tractor after giving a 5k deposit. I did a quick search and found the tractor or sale in at least five states form Pennsylvania to Oklahoma. That wasn't the first time they were scammed, but it was the least expensive time. I told them," You can't be that mad at anyone, but yourselves. Like my Grandfather used to say about matters like this," You can't rape the willing." " |
