The so-called "Nigerian scams" are existing on almost any popular item with higher price tag.
Craigslit cut them down when doing email forwarding system, but they keep on trying.
The first tip - they are very polite.
Than it is good looking unit way below market value.
Then they will try to talk you into responding to given email, not via CL
Then they will give you a story that they are soldiers or whoever who just got contract in another country and have to leave in a hurry.
All you have to do is send them couple thousands deposit and their agent will deliver the unit.
Another trick is on buying your stuff. They will send you MO on way more than the price and then come with apologizing email saying that the accountant made and error and you should wire them the difference back.
I have wall over my desk wallpapered with those MO.

To tell the truth, if I was to heist a TC, it would be something like a Host Mammoth or some other triple slide, not a lowly Palomino, especially a used one. Not insulting a Palomino in as much as I have one but I've never been worried about it getting stolen anyway... and it's insured.

Heisting a TC takes a bit more expertise than heisting a pull behind anyway.

The for sale ad was probably fake news.

Those scam ads are a dime a dozen. They grab pictures sometimes descriptions from other ads (or in this case a stolen report) and post a for sale way under value. It's just the bait for a further scam. If in doubt, Google search using part of the description in the ad and you'll often find the source.

When I was shopping for an excavator there was one of those almost daily. I turned in or flagged a bunch.

Me too. In as much as Palomino has done some very serious upgrades to the model (I have one), not sure what that one is worth.

Something smells fishy to me...

for sale ad is now gone !! where's paul harvey , I'd love to get THE REST OF THE STORY

[54suds]

amazing a cop will stop you for a licence plate lite out and demand to search your rig and here they wont do anything even when its presented to them !!!!

[anutami]

dealer said they called the police but they won't go by to check it out because they don't have actual proof...

Sounds like someone may be getting robbed in half an hour. Come on hun lets go look at a 2013 TC for only $2500

[anutami]

I think they took some pictures off the web and it not is the actual camper

Kind of a shame because the person coming by has to know it could be stolen at $2500 for a 2013.

[anutami]

I called them and let them know, also called the seller and someone is coming in 30 minutes to buy it :0
