Country: United States
Scammer posting fake ads on craigslist for food trailers, using the number 402 413-0092.
The ads usually have pics of a trailer with a "Family Tradition BBQ" sign on it.  The pics were stolen from another site.
If the seller will not give you an address or refuses to meet you, it's a scam.

    The trailer belonged to a restaurant in Newport, NY, that went out of business three years ago.  This was their Facebook page.

    Total Scam. See below. It is listed in Tennessee but is physically in Kansas so she says. The pictures show a yellow license tag obviously not from our neighborhood. If its to good to be true, It is. Her reply text is from (402) 961-2906. Here adv on Craigslist shows (785) 408-7145.

    Because of my divorce settlement, I own this Trailer and I don`t need it, so I'm trying to sell it asap. I gave the Trailer to eBay shipping company in Topeka, KS who will deliver it to the next owner. Shipping and handling is free and you can receive it in 2-4 days depending on the destination. The best part about this is You are granted a 5 day trial period for inspection and test drive prior to making the purchase and also if for any reason you are not satisfied with the Trailer you can have it shipped back at no expense for you of inspection and shipping for free. I will post it on eBay and I will send you the link where you can buy it very easy without an account or something hard. I have 876  feedback on ebay. You will pay on ebay and they will hold  your payment until you receive and inspect the Trailer . eBay will release the money to me ONLY with your approval.

    If you are ready to buy it and you have the cash available, please reply with your zip code and phone number. I need to verify if I have free shipping in your area.
    Thank you and God Bless!  Gloria Carter.

    Still at large apparently.  That's why I google it and found this.  I live in Georgia and she says it's on Maine street in Lamar Co. Right now.  I have family there, it's not there lol.  I got the same email about divorce settlement and eBay shipping company and blah blah.    I hate a scammer.

      We hate scammers, too!  They're usually somewhere in Africa or India, so they're hard to find.  I'm surprised that these particular scammers are still using the pics of the Family Tradition BBQ trailer (with the logo with two cleavers) - and the photos of the DK's Concessions trailer.
