Also "Lewis, Hill S Sgt. USAF" this dude almost got me for 1800$$ like 15 min ago my friends told me to come to this website and relate to the conversations and he started off like Hello Bla Bla Bla im a fuck face and tould me to send money to Greece Fuck"Lewis, Hill S Sgt. USAF" Gank
This is what that Fag told Me:Please reply to the Google Checkout email and ask them if you don`t understand how to make the payment. I`ll try to explain as much as I know.. You will have to go with money and ID at any western union office or Walmart and tell them that you want to send some money. You will put your name and address at the sender`s info and Google Checkout`s agent name and address at the receiver`s info. You will give that form and the money to the western union agent and he will give you a receipt. Then you will have to fax the western union receipt to Google Checkout or reply them with: MTCN (money transfer control number), sender`s name and address, receiver`s name and address and the amount.
Let me know Fuck ALSO CHECK THIS OUT I understand you are concerned and must agree with you, but honestly it is not the case. Now,if you are in my place to sell something,you'll take the risk to cheat people and have the police on your door in a few days?I don't think so!!!I m in this position!Freedom is more precious then everything in this world!! I didn't get to this stage in life by doing dumb things.I want to take this opportunity to assure you that there is nothing to be worried about this deal. I would never cheat you or swindle you!! I have a reputation to protect and a good Christian and I do not want to be imprisoned. You have my word my good faith and the protection offered by Google checkout on the fact that I'll keep my end of the bargain. I have never lied and cheated anyone. I will not risk my career, my freedom and my future for anything in the world! I would rather close this deal with other person than to know that you'll be very stressed hoping that I am a honest person, until you will receive your car. Your peace of mind is a lot more important than this deal! If you agree with these terms,let me know and i will be more than glad to start to complete the transaction with you. If you decide not to go through with it there is no problem. I got quite a few offers left. Please get back to me and let me know what you decide.Thank you for your time and interest.
This 2004 Toyota Camry LE runs and drives excellent. It has been extremely well maintained with a full service history, Only 63,900 miles! The transmission is Automatic, shifts smoothly. The interior is all original. The car has all of its original floor mats,all books, complete set of tools and keys. Everything works in the car lights, gauges, radio, seats, windows, locks, a/c blows ice cold, etc... clear title free of liens. I bought it when i was serving in Fort Lewis, U.S. Army base in Washington and now I am deployed in Athens, Greece. The car will be delivered from WA, US.
I have dropped my price to $1,800 (purchase price) since this is an Urgent Sale! and I need to sell it before July 27th, when I will be deployed in Afghanistan with my platoon replacing the troops scheduled to come home. If you're interested to conclude this purchase in a timely manner email me your: Full Name and Shipping address, to open a case with Google Checkout. They will contact you to explain the entire procedure. The financial part will be managed by them, which means that you will have a 10 days inspection period before committing to buy the car. In this way both, buyer and seller are 100% covered during the steps of this transaction.
Hope to hear from you soon! SSgt Lewis Hill

Also a few months back I found a posting on Craigslist for a 06 F150 lariat with 60,000 miles on it for$3000, pretty much saying it was in perfect condition and it also needed a quick sale because he was being transferred to Europe for a 1yr deployment. He told me the truck was in Montana and all transaction would be through eBay payment protection plan, sounded legit then I asked about the shipment of the truck and the reply was, "due to the fact that I am in the military I can ship it anywhere free of charge" , at that point I got a little suspicious and ask to fly to Montana and inspect the truck, (what would I have to lose right) and if I at that point I wanted the truck I would give them the $3000 and drive it home. The response was my wife is taking care of the transaction and if I wanted to proceed it would be shipped to me to inspect. Well needless to say I never went through with it.
Holy sheep sh*t!! I almost got swindled by Lewis, Hill S Sgt. USAF, too! I knew that deal was too good to be true. @ David Saddler, I got those exact same e-mails from him, word for word. Glad I didn't proceed with providing my card number. I did, however, provide my name, address, and phone number before I started to get suspicious. I hope he can't do nothing with the info I provided him.
Lewis Hill almost got me, he told me about the 04 Camry and how he was in Greece and so on, his offer is on Craigslist right now if you search for and 04 Camry, his offer went up Aug 1st!
I received the IDENTICAL emails. I called the Military Logistics Department at Ft. Lewis, Washing, who were to ship this vehicle--the director's office said they NEVER ship vehicles to civilians and asked if I heard about this car on Craig's List!! Plus this 'seller' keeps avoiding answering specific questions to help me identify him. When CraigsList says 'vehicle shipping & cash wiring' are sure signs of a fraud and scam, it seems this fits the bill! Shame!
Thank you I have received your data. I will initiate the transaction through Google Checkout and they will contact you with all necessary information about this transaction (terms, buyer protection, payment instructions, invoice, etc.) As soon i will have the confirmation from Google Checkout you will receive further details regarding the shipping process (courier information,expected delivery date) Please look in INBOX,BULK,JUNK and SPAM folder and after tell me if you get all info from Google Checkout.Asap
