She's at it again! Found a Sony 46" LCD on craigslist for $300 so I contacted the seller. Like the other person, Ms. Arianna (the seller) claims to have had to move toWolverhampton,United Kingdom. She supposedly is now the Chief Logistics Officer for a company called Bluechip Removals (www.bluechipremovals.co.uk).
She replied back saying the TV is available and that she can ship it using a 3rd party company called TNT. She even offed to pay 2 day express overseas shipping at her cost (how nice!). While TNT (TNT.com) appears a legitimate company the link she provides (http://ukdepots-tnt.com/tnt.express.wolverhampton.depot.overseas.transactions/) is not the same company.
When she stated she had to move to the UK, I was concerned. But after getting her last email with the link provided I knew something was wrong. Thankfully I ran a google to check the legitmacy of her claim and found this report, so she has received no money from me!

I just received the same thing and it appears she is now using the name Arianna Knowles: Here is her last email to me, exact same as noted above, I was inquiring about a ipad for $350.
Hi,
I won't return home so soon. I'll have to send it to you from here.
I found a way to sell you the ipad that will cover the both of us. It's a worldwide delivery company called TNT. They have a service that will allow you to test the ipad before I receive my payment.
Please go to the TNT website below and read their procedure so we can be on the same page:
http://ship-tnt.co.uk/tnt.express.wolverhampton.depot.overseas.transactions/
I will pay the TNT shipping fee and I can use 2 day delivery if you are in a hurry.
Thanks.

Here is the one I just got from her, looking at an ipad 2 on Craigslist. When something seems to good to be true it most likely is.
Hi, I am getting back to you regarding the 64GB 3G iPad 2 from Craigslist
My name is Arianna and I am now in Wolverhampton, United Kingdom.
I am selling the ipad for $500 USD. I have attached some pics with it to this email.
The ipad is still available and I hope you are still interested. The ipad was bought brand new from Apple a few days ago.
About the ipad I can say it's in perfect shape, as I used it only for a few days. Included in the $500 price is everything that came with the ipad.
The ipad is here with me.
I tried to be as thorough as I could with the presentation so you can have all the info if you decide to go ahead and buy it.
Please get back to me and let me know if you like the ipad if you're really interested in buying it.
Thanks,
Arianna
