Despite the obvious
Despite the obvious ridiculous price, it's always a scam when you go to reply and it only gives an option to email them. I played along with one once to see what happened. They try and get you to make deposits etc via Western Union. It's all so pathetic I really don't know how anyone can fall for it - but I s'pose there's one born every minute. They're thick too - I was asking them to send photos etc to email addresses like or doyouthinki'mstupid@gmail.com And they'd still come back asking if I wanted to proceed. I kept one going for ages so I could get the anti-scam mob involved. Spent soo long on hold and recorded messages that I gave up. It was that Haines bowrider that kept popping up every week for $9800

Hooked
seems like a good deal to me .........Good pics of the boat as well
"Hi there,
First I want to thank you for your question . I just attached some photos for you. The boat is in perfect condition, with no scratches on it, no damage All the necessary papers will be provided along with the boat.
The total price is $20000 AUD including the shipping to your address. Price reduced for quick sale.
The boat is registered in Australia but currently i am located in Darwin NT, because i just finished the divorce with my husband and i have moved here to my parents home. The payment will be made through Paypal Buyer and Seller Protection and only after you will receive the boat, i will receive the payment.
It will take around 2-3 working days until you will receive the boat and you will have a 3 days inspection period (so you have 3 days to change your mind and refuse or keep the boat). Also, I need to know if you have cash in hand because I have a lot buyers interested in the purchase and I don't have time to waste. No offense but if you really want to buy the boat I will stop communicating with the other interested buyers.
If you are interested in buying it please provide me your full name and address so i can initiate the deal through Paypal. You must know that Paypal will contact you without any obligation to buy it or fees.
I will wait your answer (if you are interested to buy) very soon.
Regards,
Samantha"

Gumtree
I'm selling a boat on Gumtree also.
I recived an email asking for more info and pictures - I sent them and then recived this email:
Thanks for the swift response and do as well advise on the least amount you will like to
give it away as I am buying this for Dad and due to nature of my job and location...I
will not be able to come for inspection, am a very busy type as I work long hours
everyday, I have gone through your advertisementand I am satisfied with it.
As for payment, I can on pay via the fastest and secure way online (Paypal) here.
I have a private courier agent that will come for the pick-up after the payment have been
made...so no shipping included and with the issue of my details, transferring the name of
ownership and signing of all paperwork will be done by the courier services company agent
so you don't have to worry about that.
You can send me your Paypal email so I can pay in right away and also include your address
in your reply. If you don't have a Paypal account, you can easily set up one...log onto www.paypal.com
and sign up it's very easy...I would have loved to talk to you on phone but I work mainly offshore,
our phone is down on the rig right now due to bad weather, that was why I sent you a text, I even wonder how
my message deliver to your phone but for now we can only communicate through the same mailing channel.
Await your reply asap.

Boredom
I was so bored yesty so told her - wasn't that awesome, I was in Darwin myself and wanted to take it for a run and yer, I was good to go with the funds.
As you can see, her reply is full of flawed logic. Anyway, she's not talking to me anymore coz I said I worked in the mines and had the 20k in cash in my pocket figured we didn't need paypal.
I am devastated .... bet she sold it to someone else
"Hi again,
Thank you for your email.As I told you in my first message i just finished the divorce with my husband.As I travel a lot with my new job and I can't do this transaction personally but the transaction will be made through Paypal buyer protection program for our own safety paypal.co.uk.I have to let you know that I want a quick deal because I have some financial problems right now.so this is the reason why I chose to sell my boat over the Internet. I have a contract with Paypal so this deal must go through them. The boat is already in Darwin,sealed and ready for delivery.Here is how it will work. First of all I will need your full name and full delivery address. After I will receive the info, I will forward them to Paypal. They will process your info and send us both invoices. Paypal will send you all the details on how to make a refundable payment.They will hold the funds until the boat is delivered to you,inspected and you confirm that received the boat in the described condition.According with the Paypal you have 7 days from the time you receive the boat to inspect it and decide if you want to keep it or not. If for any reason you won't like the boat(but I assure this won't happen) Paypal will refund the money and I will instruct the delivery company to store the boat until I will find a new buyer so it's not necessary to deliver it back to me.
If you wish to go further, please send me the necessary info so that we can proceed.
I am looking forward to hear from you.
Thank you again
Samantha"

Got the same email as Jody
There was a VE SS for sale for $10k. Thought an email couldnt hurt. Recieved the same email, word for word. Must be SOME divorce. She must be selling his stuff, his friends stuff, his familys stuff, more of his stuff. Nice person to offer everything SO cheap tho. So awsum when there are so many bargains in the one spot. Beats shopping around. Might tow the 680 Patriot and the SS back behind the Winnebago.
Cant fish from home...
