No pics, says location international (?), generally very little info.
Yeah, I'd say a scam . . . are they members, or can anyone post an ad ??

I'd be very careful if they 'are away working on an oil rig' or other such away, and the vehicle is at the brothers house or they will freight to you, etc.
Usually after a deposit of some sort.

Keith

It can't be a Con.

Benjamin Mabuti from Nairobi, a decendent of the Maasai warriors is a trustworthy man.
Just because he uses an internet computer in his grass hut is mere coincidence and shouldn't arouse suspicion.
Now the Ivory trade is limited some income has to be derived from somewhere, so he is selling the RR.

I am rather embarressed at the replies you lot have posted with regards to the sale of this vehicle. Mabuto Dandungalla is a close friend of mine and has no further use if the $80,000 vehicle. In his native Nigeria he is well respected amongst his peers. All of them very efficient computer technicians! Mabuto is unfortunately away working on an oil rig at the moment. He has instructed me, Ishman Collonga, to look after the sale. As a sign of good faith I am dropping the price to $15,000 and only require a $1,000 deposit. Naturally, like most Nigerians, I will be using paypal.
Please...no scammers reply. Thankyou.

ps.....Next month we are advertising for sale a small island south of Victoria, that was once a penal colony, that we expect about $75,000 for. Keep watching..
