That same ad has appeared in all kinds of places - such as Greensboro, Danville, Outerbanks, etc. I even saw it in Austin Tx. (all on Craigslist and with the same phone number). Just change the city in the URL to almost any, and you'll get the same ad.
I wander what this is all about.

Interesting....I think this is the one that someone else commented may be a scam or an unknown dealer. The phone number for this shows up in Craigslist ads for Lake Charles, Manhattan, Northern WV, and other cities--not to mention a variety of other free classified places. The ads are all either identical or almost identical (Craigslist does catch ads that are too similar if posted too close together in time so that usually accounts for any minor differences).

I have no idea if this person is legit or if it is a scam. However, since they are not stating that it is a business and seem to be pretending to be a private party, I would be very suspicious and only proceed with purchasing with EXTREME caution (or not at all). Personally, I wouldn't risk it since there is no buyer protection of any kind.

Maybe it is a scam, I am sorry if it is. As I said I know nothing about this system or the person or phone #.

I hope it is not and someone can get something they need.

Her ad looked familiar to me also. I remembered seeing too many ads with the same # for an unbelievable price and here is just one more. I am sure there are others but think if it were me, I would avoid this scammer.

I am getting a check done on 1-512-468-4757 and will let you know the results.

It does look like a scam being run nationwide.
