Casita scam?

I have seen the same Casita listed as being in Pittsburgh PA, somewhere in NEbraska and now in Bismark ND. The ad is exactly the same every time. I am including the link so you can see. This just does not smell right.

It seems to be non specific as to year and model. It reads like a dealer add.

A year or so ago there was a similar scam ad on craigslist but it was a Scamp camper with a "too good to be true" description and price. When I replied to the ad the answer was that a relative who worked for a shipping company now had the trailer at that place and it could be shipped anywhere in the country for free, yeah right!! Then the exact same ad showed up on other craigslists all over the country from time to time. An obvious scam, " send the money, we'll then ship the trailer to you". I've dealt with some nice people on craigslist, but there's always some scammers out there too

This exact ad was appearing on S. Florida Craig's List this morning. Listing is no longer active as of this afternoon.
