This can't be real I've seen quite a few of these, "please contact me at this email instead because my other email doesn't work" adds on Autotrader lately.

Autotrader add hyperlink

no it is not and I would actually like you to drive out and see some great beach front property that I have available in Kansas right now. You seem like a nice guy so only $2500. If interested just let me know and we can set up a wire transfer to pay for it all. Thanks

Ok sounds great, but first I have to wire some money to help out a Nigerian Prince get his millions over to the states that he's going to split with.

Not salvage title!!!

They'll want some money in an escrow account to hold the car.

I came across this one time and the fake town happened to be mine. I told the guy if he was legit at the price, I'd have the money and pick up the car at the same time. Never heard from him again.

I actually reported him to autotrader and the ad was off the next day.

Stay away!
