  3. Kristy says:

    He is posting in Boston, MA now as well. Josh Freeman via Allison. Like my husband said, if it sounds too good to be true, it’s a scam!

  4. Fred says:

    Yes, posted in Dallas Craigslist ad and the ad was removed, but two emails were received–one from Allison and the other from Josh Freeman. His email says he relocated to Keithville, Louisiana

  5. Jess says:

    Saw this on Dallas/Fort Worth listings. Original email from Allison, and then her “father, Todd Redford.” Email is verbatim from those previously listed.

  6. Leo says:

    Now in Gainesville Todd Redford

  7. Kelly says:

    Still posting in Dallas Craigslist, we emailed about it…got a message back from Allison (daughter) and now he’s saying was relocated. When we told him that we wanted to meet in person he has stopped responding.

  8. Adam says:

    Same as above. Was told that he relocated to Louisiana. Stopped corresponding.

  9. Brian says:

    Seattle Craigslist. Exact situation as the previous posts… Allison / Todd Redford. I tagged the ad on CL

  10. Nanci says:

    Now on Craig’s list in Victoria Mn. Told us he was promoted and moved to Keithville LA. Looked up the address. He gave. 9975 Mansfield Rd Lot A. Trailer park. Never finished the processed and now reporting to Craig’s list as scam and reporting to the police dept.

  11. Nanci says:

    Now on Craig’s list. Victoria MN. Told us he relocated to 9975 Mansfield Rd. lot A. Keithville LA. We stopped the transaction and reporting to Craigslist and the police

  12. Crystal says:

    He is on Craiglist in Columbus Ohio. Thanks for the heads up! His daughter Carol responded and gave me his info. He responded but won’t tell me where I can go see it.

  13. Jeff says:

    Posting in OKC now. Also used the story he was transferred to Keithville, LA.

  14. Jessica Salo says:

    Raleigh, NC now!!!

    Email address [email protected]

  15. PMorgan says:

    Posting as Benny Costa in Keithville LA. His daughter “Sandra” responded and gave me his info.

  16. Paige Staggs says:

    Apparently they are still posting in Dallas/Ft Worth. I just received a response from his “daughter” Sandra instructing me to email her dad at [email protected]. Something seemed fishy to me so I googled Benny Costa Dallas Fort Worth and this ScamRadar site was the 1st thing to come up. Wow…

    I don’t understand what these folks are getting out of this. Are people sending them money in advance or something?

  17. Brian says:

    Same as benny costa in Raleigh. Avoid the scam

  18. Cheryl says:

    We were scared by him. What can we do to stop this. He said he lived in raleigh. Too good to be true. We need to catch this guy.

  19. Scott says:

    Been dealing with this now on the Norfolk VA craigslist. Same thing as mentioned before but name now is Benny Costa. I knew it was too good to be true.

  20. Tom baker says:

    Yes – now in New Hampshire Craigslist. – w Sandra as the daughter

  21. RDR says:

    I read add on CL Seattle 5/16/2017 When I inquired here is the response….

    Hi,
    Thank you for your message. I posted the golf cart on behalf of my father. If you have any questions please ask him directly to: [email protected] and I’m positive you will receive a quick reply.
    Thanks!
    Sandra
    .

  22. Jeremy O'Guin says:

    He has made it all the way down to Houston TX craigslist now as Benny Costa

  23. Joe says:

    Just received the same message from Sandra that she posted this for her dad and that he would respond back right away, Craig’s list Phoenix Arizona. I thought that this sounded too good to be true so I googled the name that I was given, Benny Costa. It’s a nice looking golf cart but priced way lower that other that are comparable.

  24. Melissa says:

    Hi ,

    We relocated to Keithville, Louisiana with my job because I was promoted. We sold the property and won’t need it at new home so my wife is keep bugging me to get rid of it. If you have already the funds to buy the golf cart I can assist you with the delivery without any other fees because I have a contract with Amazon Payments that includes free delivery US wide. The golf cart will come with 2 sets of keys and the owner’s manuals. I will overnight the title and the bill of sale to you. Using Amazon Payments will also offer you the chance to have the golf cart inspected for 5 business days before you decide to keep it or not. If for any reason the golf cart will not meet your demands you can have it returned and receive a full refund but I’m sure it won’t be the case knowing the condition of the golf cart.
    If you’re ready to move forward please include in the next e-mail your name, your delivery address and also a good phone number where I can reach you so we can settle the rest of the details.
    I’m looking forward to hearing from you!

    PS: Attached you have some more pictures. Charger is also included.

    And this is the one I got regarding a 2006 Club Car Golf Cart posted on Craigslist Eastern Ky. My warning bells went off immediatly…I’m a very skeptical person anyway, thank goodness.
    _________________

    Hi,

    I’m emailing you about the cart that I have for sale. My 2006 Club Cart is still available. Never had or need any paint/body work done, garaged keep always, tires and wheels are in great shape as well, electric is working perfectly. There are no liens or loans on it. I’m selling it at this final price $1,000 because my husband died 5 months ago (he had a heart attack) and brings me bad memories and that’s the reason I want to sell it asap. I also got a new job and moved to another city, and many other things have priority now, so this cart has to go. If you are interested in buying my cart, feel free to email me at any time.

    Thank You Rita Carter
    She emailed today:
    As I told you in my first email,I moved to another city (Omaha, NE). Before leaving I had prearranged the deal with eBay Motors so my presence isn’t necessary. They won’t give me any money until you receive and test the cart. The cart is at the shipping company, ready to be delivered. The delivery process is managed by me. You got 5 days to test and inspect the cart. So if you want to make this deal I need the following details from you: full name, shipping address and phone number. Once I got all the details, I will forward them to eBay and they will proceed with the order. They’ll email you with all the information that you need to complete this deal and also they will confirm that the deal is conducted through them and I’m a legitimate seller. Waiting your email with the requested details.

    Best regards.

    Exact Same thing now on Craigslist Hartford ct first and second week of july 2017.
    Totally a scam

  33. Gerald Canford says:

    I have reported this Hartford CT scam to Craigslist and the local police in CT

  34. Ed M. says:

    Identical letter and format for Craig in Southern Florida, from Key West to Vero Beach, this guy has not changed his approach and offers his golf cart for $1500. Beware, Ebay and Amazon do not provide free transportation for golf carts, and their method of payment is only credit cards or paypal if you want any purchase protection. If you send him the cash cards, your money is gone. Do your due diligence and run from this scam artist.

    So glad for this site, let me know what I thought to be true, Scam!!!

  44. Brenda Tate says:

    I got a similar letter, about a 2014 EZGO golf cart posted in the Killeen/Temple Craigslist ads. Seems like $1500 is a popular price. lol

    Hi, my name is Kellie Bennett,
    I’m asking $1,500 for the 2014 Ezgo 2X2 48 Volt golf cart. You might be inclined to think that there are issues with it, but that’s not the case. The truth is that my husband died two months ago – he had a stroke at work. The cart is in a really good shape with no damage history. Not aware of any issues with the Golf Cart (i.e., starts/runs like it should).
    Me along with my daughter decided to sell the house and so we moved to my sister in Omaha,NE trying to start a new life. I want to use eBay’s services for the safety of both of us so if you’re interested in purchasing this golf cart just email me with your full name, address including the zip code and phone number, so I can notify eBay that you are selected as my possible buyer and they will contact you to explain the entire procedure.
    I am waiting for your reply.
    For more pictures here is a link to the Golf Cart photo gallery: http://imgur.com/a/japD8

    God Bless you and your family!

    Please find the specs bellow:
    Factory lift very safe–no aftermarket junk
    New full charger as well as trickle charger
    All books and manuals, registration and warranty cards
    48 volt with digital led reader
    Seat belts
    Folding windshield
    4 pers capacity
    Good batteries
    Street legal

    Hello, thank you for contacting me about my 2014 Club Car Precedent 48 golf cart that I have for sale.

    Garage kept
    No rust

    Price was reduced at $1,500.00 because I own this golf cart from my husband who unfortunately can’t enjoy it anymore as he died two months ago and I want to get rid of it asap because the sight of it makes me think of him often and often and the pain is too great. I also moved to another city and many other things have priority right now so this golf cart has to go. I will wait for your reply if you’re still interested in buying the golf cart.
