I'm selling a '28 Phaeton on both of the national club classifieds. I've been approached by an individual named Richard Garcia who claimed to want to buy the vehicle, sight unseen for full price. On follow-up he wanted the shipping cost added to the purchase price. It sounded a little hincky so we Googled the name and email address and discovered he is a known scammer on both collectible car and sailboat sites using some variant of this game. I've now had an identical approach, and I mean word for word, from a different name, John Smith. Scammers are bad enough, but scammers that think we're stupid are beyond the pale.

Sellers - beware!
