My name is Candace Garcia, and I\'m emailing you about the 1996 Coachman Mirada I have for sale. It has only 51,500 miles and a clear title with no loans or liens on it.
The price was reduced at $3,700.00 as I need to sell this motor home before the 29th of June when I will be leaving with my platoon back to Afghanistan, so I don\'t want it getting old in my backyard.
If you have any other questions, or need more info, please feel free to ask.
Thank you,
Sgt. Garcia
Hi again,
Right now I am at the military base getting ready for Afghanistan. This means that I am doing a special training and I am not allowed to get out of the unit. The motor home is already at the shipping company in Topeka KS sealed and ready for the shipping. My presence won\'t be necessary because I prearranged the deal with Amazon. The deal includes free delivery and it will arrive at your address in 3 days. You will have 5 days to test it and inspect the motor home prior to making any purchase and if by any reason you find something you don\'t like about it you can send it back at my expense.
If you are interested in knowing more info about how it works, i can ask Amazon to send you an email with more information on how to purchase it. Amazon will contact you shortly after they have the details with all the information that you need to complete this deal and you will also have proof that I am covered by them and a legitimate seller. If you would like to receive the email from Amazon will all the transaction information please reply with your full name and ph# they will contact you right away.
Regards,
Candace

My name is Dianne Mohler, and I'm emailing you about the 2006 Honda CR-V SE that I have for sale. The SUV is in perfect condition, with no need for repairs, no scratches, dings, special marks whatsoever, never been involved in any accidents. The interior looks great (smoke-free). It has 91,000 miles, automatic transmission, pewter exterior and black interior . It has a clear title with no loans or liens on it.The price was reduced at $3,600.00 as I need to sell the SUV before the 15th of July when I will be leaving with my platoon back to Afghanistan, so I don't want it getting old in my garage.

Using same exact emails as displayed in the above message, except now it is a 1994 Winnebago Itasca motorhome. The real shame of this scam is that the scammer is masquerading as a real soldier and pretending to be Sgt. Candace Garcia who is/was stationed in real life in Kansas. I hate it when people pretend to be someone they are not!
