I have my car listed on ebay and CL. A fellow member informed me that he found this ad in his local CL. Not my ad at all, as Im located in Houston, TX not Chicago. This is someone trying to scam!!!

He even used my information I had posted on ebay about the car.

I'm in but seriously if Craigslist won't do anything, I would email the guy directly and ask him politely to remove the ad.

If he doesn't do it, David and I will drive to Chicago..on his M5 of course
