As soon as I read a certain one of those responses, I recognized it as a
scam. I tried to sell my truck on CraigsList and some guy with very bad
English (much like the message in question here) tried to get me to pay
(using his check) the guy that he would send to pick up my vehicle.
When my wife tried to sell something on CraigsList, she got virtually the
same message. This must be VERY common!?
I politely asked him to elaborate and that I could not accept those terms.
No response.
It's the all-caps one with the "I will like to... and My client..."
Oh, I just read the seller's response to it. It must be a well-known con?

Subject: [MBZ] Nice W115, and ebay question

This 220D is probably fairly nice, and the seller's responses to the
27(!) questions are somewhat humorous too.
Is it typical for a car seller on ebay to receive that many questions?
If so, please remind me never to sell my vehicles on ebay--that would
drive me nuts. There aren't enough hours in the day to put up with
that $h!t.
