最近在facebook上看旧车,突然看到一个车非常便宜,照片上看起来又很好,就和卖家联系。卖家说,这是帮他sister打的广告,给了一个电子邮件地址,让俺直接和他sister联系。
他sister很快回复了:
My name is Barbara Harpole and I am the owner of a 2005 Toyota Camry LE
The car is still available. It is in perfect working order, with nothing mechanically wrong. It is a very clean car, no problems, engine and transmission are excellent, zero rust, 41,688 km on the car. Just so you know, the vehicle is in perfect condition, no damage, no scratches,never involved in an accident. It works perfectly and smoking is prohibited.
I'm selling it for only C$1,800 because I just went through a divorce and I'm so glad I got it, it was my ex-husband's most prized possession. He cheated on me even though we have 2 kids together. Anyway, I don't want to bore you with the story of my life. I sold the house and moved with my parents to Prince Rupert BC for a fresh start. Right now they are the only ones I can rely on. I work most of the time and choose to hire uShip to handle the entire sales process, so my presence is not necessary. I am currently working as a nurse here in Prince Rupert. the car is already at the uShip warehouse with all the documents and the transaction will be done through them. uShip will take care of shipping, payment and paper exchange. The offer includes free shipping for you and it will arrive at your address in 1-3 days with all the documents necessary for registration. Trading through uShip gives you the chance to test and inspect the car for 5 days without any payment to the seller. You will receive the car, enjoy a 5 day inspection period and then I will receive payment. You will have free delivery.
So if you are interested in buying, please reply with your full name,shipping address (street, city, province, zip code) and phone number so that I can notify uShip that you have been selected as a possible buyer and they will contact you shortly. transaction details step by step.Thank you.
听起来什么都很好,就是需要和这个什么uShip联系很奇怪。俺觉得不太靠谱,车都没有看过就直接ship过来?于是就没有再联系。
过了两天,又看到另外一个车,也是很新,价格也是非常便宜。和卖家联系,居然也是说是帮他sister打的!俺想万一真是碰巧了呢,于是又发了一个邮件。很快就回了,好家伙,回复措辞虽有不同,故事基本上一模一样:

到此,可以断定是骗子。但是俺并不确定接下来的剧本该如何走,当然俺也不会去试。
