Default Legit?

Can someone run a VIN for me?

I'm looking at an autotrader add for a $30K 2006 Z06 with only 10K on the odometer. Something smells funny.

If it walks like a duck and talks like a duck, you know what it is! These kind of scams have been running for a long time. Just ignore it. If you proceed they will tell you that the car is not available to be seen and that any payment is going to have to go through a Google account (they don't exist!) STAY AWAY!!

Define "run." Some here can run a GMVIS, but not CarFax.

Run Forest, run, as fast as you possibly can! I played along with one of these guys for 3 or 4 e-mails....complete scam, including a photo of someones
car supposedly being the one for sale.....the come on is always an extremely and low price. And yes, you cannot see the car and the seller is always out of the country. Yea, sure...should be in jail....R U N!!!
