Someone using the name Kayla Bumpter has a Kubota trailer listed for 3000$ , under the business name The Happy Feet Program.  The business is located in Michigan but the listing says the tractor is in Toronto. Sent an email to contact and says she’s selling cheap because her dad died recently and it brings up bad memories . Wants to sell through eBay motors and to send name , address and phone number to begin the process. I googled and found multiple other complaints about the same type of thing. Thankfully we caught it before giving any information.

    Scam all the way.  "Dad died.. bad memories" and "eBay motors" are red flags.

    I saw this same add with the location being in BC.  When you message seller (The Happy Feet Program), they come back to say he posted for his sister, Kayla Bumpter and gave me her info to contact.  She had recently left BC to take a job in Newfoundland.  Same story about her dad.  Showing on Facebook, but pay through ebay motors by Bitcoin.

    same thing: Here's their scam "Hello there,
    Sorry for delay, the tractor is still for sale, is a  2001 Kubota B7500DT Tractor 649 hours, priced at C$3,000. It is in really good shape, never had any problems with it, no need to invest money in it.  It is in perfect condition,clean title,garaged kept always,never had any problems. Doesn't have oil leaks or rust, runs very well. The final price is C$3000 (including delivery and handling to your address). I'm selling this because my father of only 62 years died 2 months ago ( he hearth attack), the tractor belonged to my father and it brings me bad memories and that's the reason I want to sell it. Me and my husband travel a lot with our business and we want to make this deal through eBay motors.

    So if you're interested in purchasing this tractor just reply to me your full name, full address and phone number, so I can notify eBay. Once that is done, they will contact you to explain the entire procedure.

    Thanks, hope to do business with you soon.
    Sincerely,Kayla"
