I got the same email from the same name.....and just got a new one from Whitney Jones......that number listed may be one of those scams that charge 30.00 a minute.....so far I have not received one legitimate inquiry about the car I am selling....googling the name and seeing this post saved me!!!!!! Thank you!

Just got e-mail from her in regards to a car I am selling. It just asked in all caps the lowest amount I would take for the vehicle. Thought it was a bit vague so typed in her name and found your site. Thanks! I won't be responding to her.

I had the exact same response to my craigslist ad. The first response came from Felicia Hoffman and appeared normal but my response went to someone named Donald Xiilow. He then wanted to use Paypal. How does this scam actually work?

I copied & pasted the above emailfrom Felicia Hoffman ten minutes ago. This is sad...

Dido to all the above with the FH! Same exact emails refusing to call. You'd have to be an idiot to deal with a scam artist this stupid. I don't understand why it's so hard to track this individual down and arrest them. I'm quite certain their not dumb enough to use their real name, Felcia Hoffman, and are located in Georgia. The email address I received was felliciahoffman@gmail.com. Really who works 24 hrs a day and can't find time to call you? Also; Paypal protects the buyer; when a person claims they don't receive their merchandise Paypal refunds the buyer. The seller who get's scammed is out the merchendise and the payment! This person responded to Harley Davidson I placed on Craiglist.

Then my reply was this
"Oh really. Get a life scammer"

This was her response which made my day:

What do you mean?. I am an honorable woman and do not appreciate the tone of your text. However, I am presently offshore hence my choices are limited. Paypal allows you to send and receive money without given out your personal information, hence the reason why i opted to pay with paypal.

OMG..I just had the so called Felicia Hoffman..same exact email. Wanted my paypal address. Unreal!!!!!!!

Anonymous said...

I too just got a normal email on concern of selling my car so I wrote back to Felicia Hoffman and then when she wrote back again she wanted my PayPal account information....Go figure, Good experience for my first time using Craigs List!!!

Anonymous said...

This is the e-mail that I just received after telling Felicia I don't do PayPal only cash on hand......

Thanks for your swiftly mail,PayPal procedures It does not take any
for the money to go through that is the reason why PayPal is the only
payment option is because it is safe and secure and as soon as i make
the payment for it,you will be sent a notification for the payment
receipt in this your email ....that is if you use this your email
address to set up the paypal account and i have a mover that will
come over for the pick up and the pick up representatives only comes
up when we have finish the deal so don't worry i will be the one to
take care of the pick up expenses ok. i will be glad if you can log on
to www.paypal.com and set up your account and send me email use to set
up and i will suggest you make use of this your email address so when
i make the payment you will be notify of the receipt from PayPal
instantly.i look to read from you soon.

This is what I reeived this morning from Felicia Jones. The first response to my ad was from ilovelisa@sbcglobal.net also jameron10@gmail.com

Good to hear back from you. I'm okay with the price and the condition.
Presently, i am out of town for my vacation and i won't be able to come for the
inspection due to my location. Moreover, I would have loved
to call but am out of service for days now which
restricts calls.I have a pick up agent who will be coming for the pick up after the transaction has been completed. I will be paying you through PayPal as it is the
only Medium at which i can send Payment at the Moment.
I would appreciate if you email me with more pictures (if available) too
since i won't be be able to see this in person. And if you don't have a
PayPal account, It's pretty easy to set up a PayPal account at
www.paypal.com . it's just a few minutes away from signing up. it's
safe and secure for
both Parties and i have been using PayPal to buy and sell for years
now without problems. Pls get back to me with your PayPal email so i
can proceed with the payment and contact the Pick up Agent who will
come for the Pick up of the item.
I will need these following details so i can proceed with the payment right
away


1:Your PayPal e-Mail Address
2: Home Address

We also have been dealing with this person. What can we do stop this, first time using Craig's list, won't do it again. Looks like they go after big ticket items, ours was an RV, they use the exact same wording and a few different names.

Felicia Hoffman feliciahff@gmail.com 724-492-8351

I'm selling a car on Craiglist and got a text message from this person asking me to email pictures to the email mentioned above. I looked this chick up on FB. Just so happens that the first profile that came up there was a Felicia Hoffman that lives in the town next to me and is a Sales Consultant as CarMax so I was on board. I sent the pics and get a response " I got the pics, thank you. When do you want to complete this transfer?" I told them that they could come test drive this weekend... and I got this...
"I am very busy at work and do not have much time around me, but don't worries as i am willing to handle the picked of this merchandise through my legitimate mover agent cause i will like it to be picked at your residence location once you received and confirmed all your money from paypal,Make sure you get back to me immediately." and then I responded "I'm not sure I understand correctly. You don't want to test drive the car. You want it. You are going to be paying me 3000 through PayPal. Then you are going to send someone to pick up the car for you? Did I get that right?" After they responded that is exactly what they planned to do I responded that I think it's a scam and I would not be accepting the offer. They felt some kind of way by the sound of their response... " What do you mean?. I am an honorable woman and do not appreciate the tone of your text. However, I am presently offshore hence my choices are limited. Pay-pal allows you to send and receive money without given out your personal information, hence the reason why i opted to pay with pay-pal. regards"

Sorry "Felicia" not getting anything from me!

New Felicia SCAM- WATCH OUT-

Hello,

First, a few words about this 2008 Jeep Grand Cherokee, it's in perfect working condition, garage kept, with nothing wrong mechanically- like new!
This car has only 94.471 miles, used just to cruise. No accident history, clear title, no dents or dings and no scratches at all. Engine size is 5.7L, 8 Cylinder with an automatic transmission and 4WD. The car has all service history with all inspections done on time.
If you decide to buy it, you'll receive all the papers, owner manual, keys, a buy-sell contract already signed by me and the clear title.
I have a low price ($2000), because I want to sell it in the next 10 days. Right now time is really an issue for me and that's why I need to sell it fast. I need it gone by the 22th of September, that being also the reason for selling it so low. My husband and I divorced last month and after the divorce I was awarded the jeep. Because I'm very busy with my moving to another state, I don't have the time to do this myself and I decided to sell it through eBay because this protects the both of us (buyer& seller). Also they will give you 5 days inspection period (test drive), and in the mean time, offers me the guarantee that you have the amount necessary to buy it.
If you're interested in purchasing just reply me your full name, full address and phone number so eBay can register you as a potential buyer. After that, they will contact you with all the details.

You will find some pictures here https://postimg.cc/gallery/2jxa673aw/
Best Regards,
Felicia
