So I need to vent. And somewhere that isn’t Facebook. Two weeks before I had my daughter, my husband was hit on his way to work and his car was totaled. We finally got the payment for his car and we started looking on Craigslist and Facebook marketplace for a cheap replacement. Yesterday we thought we had found a good deal and proceeded to purchase the car (they claimed it was an eBay sale). So we went and purchased eBay cards at Walgreens and sent the pics in to the email we received from eBay.
Well, now we are pretty sure we got scammed out of $1500. Now we have $500 to buy a replacement car, and will have to be a one car family for I don’t know how long. My husband is beating himself up over this, I am mostly just numb. Just going through the motions today to keep my two kids fed and happy, while our world crumbles around us. I just can’t right now....I just can’t.

@raquely, agree omg, plus you want to see the car and inspect it. Never, ever take their word for it.

I’m sorry they took advantage of you like this but this is a well known scam that’s been going around for a while. I’m sorry you guys fell for it :/

Omg that’s horrible!!! I’m sorry hun!
If you purchased through eBay you can contact customer service and they can try to refund you! I had a couple issues like that (not a big purchase like that tho) and eBay was able to give me my money back! It’s worth a try!
