I was researching all the Craig's Lists citys looking for a Hawk for sale. I noticed there are about 3 or 4 Hawks that are listed in many citys at very low prices. I assume they were some kind of scam, but it makes no sense. I replied to the owners asking to see the car. I never get a response! These people are spending a lot of time placing the ads in different citys (and states) and keeping them on top of the list. Why? Where is the scam? They don't respond to questions so what are they up to? A black hawk that mentions Johnny Lightning is in several states all over the US but will not respond to any questions. You can't scam someone unless you talk to them. Any ideas?

Phishers, Fishers, Crooks, that's ALL they are!
The "Other" thing that Bugs me is, all these in or out of Country "Foreigners" that as soon as you find an eBay item you want, you get all the "suggestions" at the bottom of the screen from others beating the original seller's Price, sometimes not, but totally COPYING (Stealing) the original Ad, Photos and all for exactly the SAME item.
I blame eBay for not seeing what is going on and stopping these people.
The other "Trick" is; the SAME person has 6 different Names and Stores, some in China some here, and they will even compete with themselves on price, and IF you choose the cheapest one, for sure you will end up waiting 3-4 weeks for it to come from China, and they are hoping you will miss the tiny "Location" entry.StudeRich
