wow im glad i cam here first
though i really dont want to believe its true. I've been contacted with the same story, going through a divorce in the UK, for an add put up for roughly 24 hours only, then taken down. I havent given any information of mine to her, but was a bit worried when i couldnt find any information on the trading post website about their refund policy. what should i do ?

Hi
My husband and myself almost became scammed yesterday, ourselves over a caravan 2005 Majestic Knight Semi Off Road Caravan, for an amazing price of $5,300.00,that was advertised here on TP.
Send money via western union, yeah right do they thing we are stupid or something, and the woman became rather irate in her emails, that were flinging back and forth every couple of minutes.
Also given a link for live chat from someone allegedly from TP, I have kept the chat transcript.
Caravan allegedly in Victoria, then Sydney, and she was in the UK. We by the way in South Australia and we were prepared to go over and look at it, with the mileage being around 1400 kms.
Thank goodness my husband realised what was happening and we stopped with the purchase that was going to cause us a lot of heartache........How do people get away with this?

We've just NEARLY been conned by "Olivia" in the UK going thru a divorce same email as in previous posts. The "invoice" from Trading post is so convincing the only way I could tell it was fake was her English was ***** and the email at the bottom of the page was from "@live.com". Also the add was on last night and gone this morning!!!
She's selling a 2008 outback Eagle camper trailer for $6000. My hubby was a bit suss, and the request to send money thru Western Union and telling the teller I'm sending money to "a friend" cos its cheaper that way was a dead give away!!!! Luckily I read this thread before I got a confirmation mail from "Trading Post"
Thanks everyone
