    Default 05 Triton for sale?

    Well if this is a true post it is dirt cheap imo.
    I sure hope someone on this forum can get it.

    I think it's a possible scammer job, as shown in other threads here. Noticed it's the same format as previous scammer, boat's registered in PA as shown in the pic. No phone number and using a Gmail account (known scammer's favorite e-mail addresses).

    You'll noticed also there's no way to send the seller an e-mail by using Craigslist own e-mail system, but you have to write directly to their e-mail.

    If you do write back to this seller, open up a new dummy e-mail account so that they don't try to fill your own e-mail address you've been using for years.

    Too good to be true, yea, most likely...

    I had some great fun "re-scamming" the last dumb arse on Craigslist...

    Definitely looks like the other scammer. Someone should start messing with him again like a few people did with him last time he tried to scam people!

    It is definately a Scam,,, If it has a Description with the Hull ID #, it is straight copied off of Ebay and posted as a way to get ones info and credit cards with the Emails,,,,

    In general, craigslist ads that have all the info in one large jpg file (as opposed to separate text and pictures) are scams. You see this a lot in the auto ads as well. I think it is so that you can't do a search on the info, helps them cover their tracks.
