I have been looking around for a car and I recently have email a guy about one and his response was this.
-------------------------------------------------------
As I know that my current situation is pretty special I want the deal closed only through eBay's Buyer Protection Program in order for you to be 100% protected. You will make the payment to eBay and they will hold the money until you receive the car. ONLY AFTER you receive the car and inspect it (for 10 days) eBay will release the payment to me; in this way we are both protected. Anyway i am sure that if you won`t be satisfied with the car i will surely find another buyer in your area and there will be no need for you to ship the car back.

I am located in Toronto,Canada and I was sent here to improve the military relationships between our country and Canada. One month ago, my wife moved here with me and brought the car with her, but now we have to sell it back in the United States because In order to be able to register this car here, I would have to pay very high import/custom taxes. My final price on it is $ 2960. If you will take it for this price, I am willing to handle the shipping. It will be shipped from here by plane with US Air Military Cargo so it will not cost me anything. You will get it to the nearest airport in your area and then it will be trucked forward to your place. You will receive the car in about 2 days. Please get back to me asap if you decide to buy, and include in your e-mail your full name and address where you want it shipped so I can start the deal with eBay. You will receive all the transaction payment and shipping details from them.
Thank you, and have a nice day,
John M. and Nora Bray

The car is a 2003 honda accord with 27,000 miles on it but he is only asking $2960 for it because of his said special circumstance. Can anyone help out on letting me know if this is legit or an attempt at a scam somehow.

Hi bobuck34,

While it is not unusual to find great deals on eBay, it is good to be wary of something that seems to be too good to be true.

Is this listing on India site? The system the seller is speaking is of PaisaPay (which is available only to India Sellers), however, the price is being quoted in US Dollors.

On India site, cars come under classified format, and thus is not covered by PaisaPay.

You may want to give some more details on which site the items is listed, which payment mode you are planning to apy etc.

Regards,
Sapana
