Default Re: Another BS scam for my AA Truck

I would want cash or a wire transfer.

The last sale I had was for a 1930 Roadster I had listed on Craig’s list in the Seattle Tacoma area last summer in June. The buyer was in New York and he was going to ship the car to France. I put everything on high alert. I quizzed him on what business he was in and asked for a list of the last 10 cars he purchased for export. I called about 4 buyers on the list and found this guy was not a scammer. He would wire transfer a deposit of $1000 in your account within 24 hours and the rest within 10 days. He would arrange for a transporter to pick up the car only after full payment was received.

I provided him with the routing numbers for my bank savings, only after a long discussion with my credit union that only deposits could be made and NO withdrawals. I had the $1000 deposit within 24 hours and the remainder within 10 days. On the specified date a transporter showed up and the car went to California for transshipment to New York, and then on to France.

If you don't have time to do it right the 1st time, how do you have time to do it the 2nd time?
