the reason he wants you to e-mail him personally is because it is not his account. The real account owner got duped into a fish e-mail where he mistakenly gave all his ebay info to a fake ebay site. (update your account or it will be suspended) etc. Beware of those e-mails, a good way to tell if they're real or not is to scroll over the link listed in the email without clicking on it, after a second or two it will show the real address you will be re-directed to. Hope this info helps someone from being scammed!

Email from the "Seller"  Quote:
Hello,
You have to know that the car I'm selling is 100% working and great looking, no flaws or dents, no scratches or any kind of damage.I have the clear title in hand.I just moved to England because my wife is from here and she wanted to be closer to her parents.To be honest with you...this was my brother car but he is not�anymore , he had a accident in Iraq last year. I don't want to get rich by its selling, just want to give it to someone who will take good care. The car is here with me.Shipping will be done by Lufthansa Cargo and the car will arrive in 9-10 days top. I will pay the shipping fees. It will be insured at the shipping company for the transport. All documents, including owner's manual in english, clear title and bill of sale will be provided along with the car.The price i'm asking is $5,200 (shipping is included).
The car is an US model(speedometer in miles like you saw pictures ),made and bought in the US. It is still registered in the US, so you won't have to pay any custom taxes and you won't have any problems registering the car in your name.
Terms: The transaction will be closed only through a safe and secure payment method recommended and approved by eBay, so both you (as a buyer) and I (as a seller) be protected.I'm a serious seller and a fair trader and I prefer to deal only with a serious buyer. Anyway, I have to let you know that I want a fast deal so if you are really interested in buying it, please reply with the following information so i can forward them to ebay and start this deal ASAP:
-Your full name :
-Your shipping address :
-Your eBay user id :
I will look for your email, so that we can move forward with this deal!
Best Regards,
I Notified Ebay, sent his Email addres, and this email.

sometimes just clicking the ad redirects you to a fake Ebay "sign in" web page. I recently saw one that redirected and then cleverly popped up a "search" text box with the correct https://www....ebay address in it, blocking the actual address input box. Real SOBs. The sheer number of these ads is a new thing I think.
