OT - Need any information or help with an eBay Motors transaction

My niece just called me and said she had purchased a car on Craig's List, but that the seller sent an invoice through eBay and was given an eBay Motors Vehicle Purchase Protection case id number. The invoice indicates that payment is to be made via MoneyGram Money Transfer to an eBay Motors Agent in charge of this transaction. The invoice explains how to get a MoneyGram and provides the name and address of an "eBay Motors Agent". It also request the buyer email payment information to eBay Motors Financial Department, however the link to do so is not accessible. In my attempts to find out some information through eBay Motors "Help" pages, it states clearly under "Complete Your Purchase: Pay the Seller" to Never use instant money transfer services, like Western Union or Moneygram, to pay for a vehicle.Does anyone have any suggestions on how she should proceed? I have never dealt with eBay Motors and have no idea who to contact or if this is legitimate. Any help would be appreciated. Why doesn't anyone ever think to ask, "What the heck was this chicken doing walking around all over the place anyway?"
