Someone tried to bait me into thinking I was doing a legit business transaction for a truck.  Guy claimed to be a USAF Sgt.

He sent me a Carfax report, created and sent a masked (fake) ebayMotors email as "confirmation" even though it was through Craigslist I found out about the truck.

Turns out the truck is registered to a person in AZ, not PA.  As a fleet vehicle, not a personal vehicle...  and the guy I would be doing a DIRECT bank-bank transfer with, is actually some Spanish scumbag in Madrid.  (he failed to mask his bank account name in the one email).

Report the fucker or let them continue to scam?   He was trying to screw me over to the tune of $17,000.
