DONT SEND THIS PERSON MONEY but if you are close go see it.

Chances of it being a real car are about the same chances of me dating Jennifer Aniston, maybe better.

Have the same ad in Cameron La. She says she will use PaySafeescrow and ship the car to my location and when I'm satisfied, I release the funds...

Same ad in the local Nebraska newspapers with 402-961-2346 for a phone # A friend called me about it a few minutes ago. I came here first because I was sure it was a scam. I told him that parts cars sell for that price. I hope nobody falls for this but I am sure some will.

I doubt that they spend a penny on newspapers I bet they use the free places. If they get 2k to hold a car till you get there by wire they are ahead of the game.

Hopefully the experienced buyer who forks out 45k for a mid year will realize this is BS.
It's a shame the sucker who bites probably is not on this board.
Thanks for the heads up

You do know this is a scam?
We exchanged emails to the point that I said I would pay for an inspector for me and also pay for someone to represent her (because she was unable to show the car herself). And if all went well I would bring cash. I have not heard from her since.

Yep, well aware. Just adding Jax to the long list.

Just think of all the people that sent the poor little old lady thousands to hold the car.
