Re: {Chrysler 300} Possible scam artist

A friend is going to try that with a car he's selling but they told him the funds won't be released until the car gets delivered and the buyer approves. But the buyer is responsible for the return shipping if they don't like it.

Escrow is also good for buying a car when you can’t pick it up yourself. How I bought my C in San Francisco from Australia. Funds were only released to the seller when it was confirmed the car was on the transporter’s truck. They charge a fee, but I got my car and the seller got paid.

Don,

Just a heads up. I have seen forged certified checks. I only take them if I am standing with the buyer at their bank when they are drawn up. But even that does not guarantee they are good if the money was deposited to that account from another chained fraudulent check.

Cash at their bank or money wired to your account. For an expensive car, like aircraft, use an escrow account. That way the car does not get released for 15 days to make sure that the issuing bank cannot pull back the money.

Has anybody heard from a John A. Waters? He says he's interested in my "L". He is not in the club registry. He doesn't quite write well. No phone number and no address. Wants to send me a certified check. Asked about my address.

I asked him to send me his phone number and address so that I may send him photos. That may have spooked him for he did not reply.

How did he find out about my ad?

Just being careful.
