What a joke. An $80,000 plus car for $12,000.... but you have to contact them by the *special email* they've added.
I find it disturbing that anyone would consider this anything other than an amateurishly blatant fraud attempt.
Please tell me you were kidding or you have been getting some serious heat on this evening....

Big scam
Got a note back from the seller. Big scam...
"Hello,
Thank you for your email, and sorry for my late reply. First of all the car belonged to my father, he was the first and only owner, and after he passed away 7 moths ago, he left the car to me. I do not now much about this car. I can let you know that it has a clean US title, it has no scratches or dents, it has 33000 miles and it runs perfectly, I've took it for a drive before I left US, and I didn't drove it since then. Anyway I have all the receipts and for all the work that has been made on it. The car is now in Sofia, Bulgaria with me, and it is crated as I received it, when I've moved here 1 moth ago, because I found a better job. I've tried to register it here but the odometer is in miles, and to make it street legal, I'll have to pay around $4000 US money that I cannot afford because I want to buy a house, so I've decided to sell it. The total price that you'll have to pay for this car is $12000 US, price that includes shipping taxes and insurance. All of my transactions until now were made under eBay's protection, and for that I wish that we make this deal also with eBay's protection. If you agree with moving forward with the deal through eBay please email me your full name and shipping address. As soon as I receive these information from you I will forward them to eBay along with the rest of the details in order for them to open a case regarding our deal. I am waiting for your email as soon as possible.
Regards
Cara Hoover"

I am sure he is not allowing any other bids as it would reach the BIN and it would end the "fun". He is just waiting for the right prey to come along. I received an automated email from ebay stating they will be reviewing my complaint withing 72 hours.
Now, all I need to do is add his email and hopefully anyone that googles his address will find this thread. carah38@gmail.com carah38

I googled "stop do not bid on this item" and came with 2 results. Look at the second result. I wish these people can get caught and do some time but chances are they are not even in the US. brhhhhh
