Unbelievable. I wonder if any private party selling a car online these days is actually getting real offers? It’s obvious that the fraudsters are hitting just about everyone in Auto-Trader.com. Thus far, I’m two for two. Two offers, both from money and check order scammers. I’d love to track this guy down. I wonder if there is an official law enforcement agency which deals with this?

Andre,

Thanks for responding to my request regarding to the sale of the car,after viewing the pixs and other informations provided on the internet,I think the price is o.k by me and I really appreciate buying the car and i hope to complete the payment as soon as possible.
 
Actually I bought a car from a seller in Atlanta GA at the price of $X0,000 and i sent payment to him,on getting to the pick up,my shiper agent discovered that the car has been wrecked on the front door (driver’s side) and the seller did not inform me of this so i had to cancel the transaction.
 
Since your own car is cheaper,with more options and less milage,I have decided to complete the payment so that i can assume the new owner.I have actually discussed with him on how to refund me the funds so that i can complete payment for your car,we have disccussed and he has agreed to send you a casheirs check on my behalf.
  
Please note that the check is for the purchase and shipment of the car so when you get the check payment,you deduct the agreed cost of the car ($X9,000) and refund the remainder ($X,000) to my agent so that he can use it to handle the shipment.
 
Please email me the following info so that he can send you the funds, my shiper agent will contact you for the pickup of the car as soon as you receive the payment.
 
(1) Payment Name (2) Mailing Address for delivery of  the payment(3)  Direct contact phone number.
  
Please note that,you will western union the difference to my agent as soon as you receive the payment so that he can use it to handle the shipment.
 
Thanks as I look forward to hearing from you soon.
