Moeller Sky Car for sale!
ROFLMAO!
I like the question from the guy that wants to tow his boat with it. Hope he's got a fireproof gelcoat. Jim "Ken Finney" wrote in message ... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/M400X...spagenameZWDVW I suppose it had to happen! |

Moeller Sky Car for sale! Ebay Scam?????
Something tells me this is a scam. Check out the bidders, click on
their feedback rating and then check out the type of items they've purchased...absolutely nothing to do with aviation and/or cars for that matter. Also something tells me that bigkahuna and stupidkid aren't million dollar bidders. No offense intended. Part of this bidding process seems to be turning over some of your personal info on a screen that looks very official from ebay...but beware the scammers are very smart and are very good at what they do.

Don... It is and it is not a scam. The auction is a real eBay listing but I doubt the item is worth what it will bring even if the buyer gets what is listed. The Skycar is a scam anyway you look at it. Go to the eBay website and search for "M400X" and it'll come right up... Tony |

Tony, that is how ebay scammers work, the auction pages are actually on
ebay. There is no doubt the item is listed on ebay...it's the infornation such as ebay id and corresponding passwords that these rip off artists are after. Watch out!! Don.. It is and it is not a scam. The auction is a real eBay listing but I doubt the item is worth what it will bring even if the buyer gets what is listed. The Skycar is a scam anyway you look at it.

You are overly paranoid. If you go to eBay and log in there rather than
following some link, there is no possibility of having your password and account info stolen. As a former IT pro and network admin, I am way more security minded that most people. My passwords are never less than 12 characters and I change them frequently. Also my passwords do not involve things that could be guessed by knowing me really well. The only links I follow to places that require a login are in my Firefox bookmarks. Weather or not the item is actually there is to be determined later.

Moeller Sky Car for sale! Ebay Scam?????
Wright brothers may have been regarded as scamers by some. Moller has
been at this for years and seems genuine in his efforts. I personally don't think he will succeed, but I still don't like to put people down for pursuing a dream. We all like to identify with success and not with failure. A lot of historical successes could not be predicted. Lets not be so eager to put efforts down - puting down is allways easy, pursuing a dream is not. Some dreams succeed, many don't, but that is the price of progress.

Some dreams succeed, many don't, but that is the price of progress. A few obvious differences between the Wrights and Moller: 1) The Wrights operated in secrecy. Moeller has been out in the press with his vaporware for at least 3 decades. 2) The Wrights never solicited investors, at least until well after they had a flying aircraft. 3) The Wrights didn't try and sell their product until they had proven that it worked. Moller seems to make a good living by wasting other people's money. KB |

He's been genuine in fleecing investors (caveat emptor) and the government (this disturbs me) out of money to screw around with this. There's not a shred of practicality. Essentially, it's long on glitz and short on engineering. |
