[Amc-list] AMC Guys, a deal too good to be true! - $700 (Las Vegas) WARNING SCAMMER

["Eddie Stakes" <eddiestakes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I just got off the phone with a local Houston AMCer who got scammed for 
$700. Seems the scammer knows AMC and also took a guy in Dallas for $700 and 
a fellow in MO for $3000, at least that is what he knows so far. The stuff 
was "found" on criagslist, and I just saw this on www.craigslist.com and 
thought would put out red flag. I do NOT know the poster of this ad but it 
is a real warning considering the fellow I just got off the phone with says 
"this guy knows his sh*t" when it comes to scamming people and I guess AMC.

AMC Guys, a deal too good to be true! - $700 (Las Vegas)

BEWARE of a guy in your area that is defrauding people over CraigsList by 
offering AMC goodies. He claims to be an AMC guy, used to be in an AMC club, 
and claims to have three 401s from '71 Ambassador FBI cars. He posted an ad 
on the Denver, Dallas and Atlanta CraigsList and told potential buyers that 
he had two 401s, with trans, out of the car and one 401 still in one of the 
FBI cars. He stated that his company, ?"Worldwide Auto Salvage"?, had trucks 
that made frequent trips across the country and could deliver for free if 
you were close to an interstate. He sold the car with the motor in it to two 
different people and stated they would be delivered(somehow to both buyers!) 
on the 19th of April. It NEVER HAPPENED! PLUS, he has sold ALL 3 motors to 
ANOTHER buyer, who has yet to receive them or the Javelin that he sold him! 
And, he has been contacting other potential buyers and offering to sell all 
three motors to them AFTER he was ALREADY supposed to have delivered the 
SINGLE car to the two separate buyers! THIS IS A SCAM!!!!!
He will tell you his name is "Randy" or "Tom" and uses the phone # 
702-589-6619, which is listed in Las Vegas, or 615-397-2756, which is listed 
in Nashville. He references Nevada, Colorado, Arizona and Tenessee as 
locations for him and/or the motors when working deals with potential 
buyers. He included a different phone #, 719-423-0564, on his Denver ad, but 
it is disconnected. He uses the email addresses 
"rockymountainexpressco@xxxxxxxxx", "Autotransportersofamerica@xxxxxxxxx" 
and "magnumenterprisesinc@xxxxxxxxx". They are all now "disabled or 
discontinued".

If this guy tries to "sell" you something, CALL THE POLICE, because he has 
already taken his first step towards ROBBING YOU BLIND!!!!!!!

If you've already had a run-in with this crook, let me know what happened 
with your "deal" and what you know about this thief.
Location: Las Vegas

So ya'll be on lookout in case this deal sounds too good to be true.
