Okay, so I found a car on Craigslist for dirt cheap. The asking price for a 2001 Mustang GT Coupe is 2,800 dollars. The Kelley Blue Book value is almost 8,000 dollars. The guys says the car is sealed at a DSA in West Palm Beach Florida, and he cannot meet face to face with me, because he has a new job in Tuscon, Arizona. Well, already this sounds fishy. So i asked him how this transaction might work? He says that we will use Auto Trader for the purchase, however i called Auto Trader and they said that they do NOT deal with purchases or business transactions. Could he be thinking about another Auto Purchasing company? Is there such things? My next question is, should I give my full name and shipping address to him, just to see what he sends back? Can he sabotage my credit or commit fraud if he has my full name and address? Thanks.
Wow thanks guys. I guess I overlooked where it said something about scams. I am new to Craigslist. I know it seems like I may be gullable, but I would never give my hard earned money to a gambling situation. I was just curious about this. So, any snide comments are not appreciated. Thanks, I am not a dumbass. Just wanted a few opinions.
