SALINA — A 74-year-old Salina man is out $19,000 after getting caught up in a scam on eBay.

Salina Police Captain Paul Forrester said Monday that the man recently attempted to purchase a 2012 Winnebago recreational vehicle he found on eBay.

The man wired $19,000 to the alleged seller, but the RV was never delivered, Forrester said.

The man contacted eBay personnel who told him it was a scam, Forrester said.
