| 18th of May, 2011 by User520265 |
This all looked totally legit until it came time for me to pay for the trailer. Then I got this email which told me to pay through Western Union but said that the money would be held in an escrow account until I received the trailer and inspected it. The Western Union website had a warning that as soon as you send money, the person can get it and it's gone. There is no such thing as "the money will be held by an internet escrow service." Then I started searching the web for this company and found nothing. Hopefully the next person also searches the web and finds this scam report before they wire money. Here's the email: Dear valued customer, The status of transaction #366757 has changed to:

| I have just been going through this same thing from the same company, except it was for a 2008 exiss horse trailer, that was listed for the same price $2.700. The guy said he used to live in the US but had since moved to the UK, and that he needed to get rid of the horse trailer fast, and that he could ship free in the US, he had pics of a very nice trailer...I probably would have done it, but the fact that they wanted a wire transfer set red flags up, I asked the guy that I had been emailing if I could drive down and see the horse trailer first, and I have gotten no response from him...I am glad I came across this...I guess when they say if it seems to good to be true then it really is... |

We have had a similar experience with trying to purchase a Honda Goldwing Trike. The seller claims to be on business in London, but his wife in Fullerton CA can ship the trike. The address in Fullerton, CA does not exist. (The very same trike by the same seller is also advertised in Largo, FL.) We asked why we could not go to Fullerton and buy the bike in person, and never got a decent answer.
