There are several postings on craigslist for some nice Quads.
Of course these might seem too good to believe and you know what that means...

Here are some of them.

2006 POLARIS 800 SPORTSMAN WITH SNOW PLOW ONLY 32HRS TOP CONDITION - $2940

2007 KAWASAKI BRUTE FORCE 750 4WD, TRAILER,SNOW PLOW GOOD CONDITION - $2940

These are my favorite, I can see the need for a snowplow in Miami Florida after watching Al Gore's global warming movie.

07 Polaris Sportsman 800 efi 4x4, low miles, excelent - $1828 (Miami)
As new 2005 Polaris Sportsman 700 efi 4x4 with snow plow - $1613 (West Kendall, Miami)


Wow these are some killer deals, we should collect our cash and make a road trip picking up all of these!

Looks like at least some of the ads are an embedded graphic that, if clicked, takes you to a malicious web site.

Scammers suck @ss!

But it's laughable about how easy they are to spot. The reported email responses if you email one of them is almost always the same:

Dear [insert email address], Thank you for your interest in my [insert year] [insert model] [insert name of quad, side-by-side or PWC] that has [insert mileage from ad] miles, with [insert accessories like plow, winch, etc.] for $[insert dollar amount].

I mean, this is from ALL over the country, and the replies are nearly the same. It's very organized, apparently.

And "usually"...the quad is in a foreign country...or at best...across country. There's always some excuse why it's there....


Terry wanted to buy a 700 in Germany for $2500..SHIPPING INCLUDED! I said dude...tell him PERFECT..I work for an airline...I'll fly to Germany and pay cash and take delivery. I said if it's real, it will cost you a grand to go get it..still saving money...if it's a scam, he'll have excuses. The scammer emailed him back..in effect...."this isn't any way to conduct an honest internet transaction."....HUH??
