| +2 Untitled Classified Ads Scam , ref:1764 I appreciate your interest in buying my car. The Mercedes-Benz is in perfect shape, never been smoked in, without scratches nor dents, and it has never been involved in any kind of accidents. I legally own a clear title, free of any liens or loans,under my name. It has 20,593 miles, for sale at $18,700. The price is below the market as I recently divorced and I need the money as soon as possible, therefore I don\'t need it, so I\'m trying to sell it as soon as possible. If you have any other questions, or need more info, please feel free to ask.
First please let me explain you the process of this sale and afterwards you can decide if you want to go with it or not.
As I told you in my first email, I recently got divorced. I got a new job and moved to Topeka KS for a new start. I\'m in the city but my presence won\'t be necessary as I prearranged the deal with Escrow, using their Buyer Protection Program. The car is also in Topeka at the shipping yard, ready to be delivered. You benefit of free delivery, having it delivered at your address in less than 5 working days. After that you will have 5 days to test and inspect the car prior to make any purchase. If by any reason you find something you don\'t like about it, you can send it back on my cost. If you are interested in buying it I will need the following details from you: full name, address, and phone#.
Once I have your info I am going to forward it to Escrow to get things started. After that Escrow will contact you with all the instructions that you need in order to buy it. Waiting for your email with the requested details so we can move forward. |

My name is Tracy Friedl, and I'm emailing you regarding the 2007 Mercedes-Benz GL Class GL450 that I have for sale. The SUV is in perfect condition, with no need for any additional repairs. Flawless exterior/interior condition, no scratches and no dents. It has never been involved in an accident. The mileage is 44,685, automatic transmission, with an 8 Cyl engine, burgundy exterior and tan leather interior. It has a clear title with no loans or liens on it. I'm selling the SUV because my 21's years old son died 2 months ago in a car crash. A drunk driver hit him and his fiancee. They were with her car on their way to his little brother's birthday. It was his SUV and it brings me bad memories and that's the reason I want to sell it as soon as possible. The price that I'm asking is $20,400. Just let me know if you are interested and where are you located.
Thank you,
Tracy
