So - maybe Port Angeles is a suburb of Miami?!?

The Ebay and Florida ads are likely real. The one from Washington is likely a scam. I have seen several ads on CL that have been hijacked and re posted by a scamer. One common story is I am in the service and being transferred and have to sell. The vehicle is located in ... and I am now in... I will have it shipped to you. etc. etc. Then they will send a Pay Pal link (which is fake and the real scam) asking for a deposit. NEVER use a Pay Pal link that is sent to you.
Notice the Washington ad has no contact names or numbers but the others do.

Exactly.
I always look for odd things in ad pictures - trees that don't fit, license plates etc... I will usually do a search on any text and images and see what pops up.
The scammers usually leave a lot a clues in their ads.
