eBay Vehicle Buying

Hello, 

 

I found a lady selling a Nissan Pathfinder on FB Marketplace, promoted by a dealership. The dealership told me to contact her, and gave me her email. She replied to my email, and said: "I want to use eBay Services for both our safety, so if you're interested in purchasing this vehicle just email me your full name, address including the zip code and phone number. I will inform eBay that you are selected as my possible buyer and they will contact you to explain the entire procedure." 

 

Since I am very unfamiliar with this process (never purchased a car on eBay), is this standard? I'm a little apprehensive as I can't find the listing for her vehicle either.

 

Thank you in advance for your help!

FB Marketplace has officially become worse than CraigsList for scams.

It's a total scam and you are dealing with a criminal.

Be sure to let all your FB Friends know how many scams are on that site.
