SCAM CENTRAL

This car recently sold by the dealer who took these photos and wisely displayed the car in front of their banner a 100% reputable dealer and very well built car that sold in the $40,000 range so why is CARHUNTER talking about it besides he would love to own it?

The car pops up on one of those sites we all see where anyone can list a car, but either the avenue to get in touch with the seller is to send your contact info to that website, don't! or you have to contact the very familiar forced consignment dealers who won't even tell you actually where the car is. In my opinion these cars for sale sites are useless, the seller if legit should be the one exposing their contact info!
The car shows up for $13,950 says it's in North Carolina, CARHUNTER bites and gets this back

Hello,
Please excuse my late reply, but I have limited Internet access due to long working hours.
My vehicle is still available for sale and the price is US $13,950.What I can tell you about the vehicle is that the title is clear, no malfunctions or errors what so ever. I am the second owner of the vehicle. The vehicle is accident free.
Because of my current situation, I am in the US Army being currently deployed in Kuwait, I have decided to use the services of a shipping company to help me sell my vehicle.
I will be abroad until June 2021.
If you need any more details or more photos, I will be happy to help. I ask just for patience in getting a reply.

Thank you!

 I bite again and got this;

Hello,

 

Last price is $ 12,000. The vehicle is located in Billings, MT, USA at the shipping company, who will intermediate the transaction for us. This is the safest and fastest way for both of us. It is a very intuitive and well-known method for selling vehicles:
Step 1) The payment is deposited in an escrow account, belonging to the company.
Step2) You receive the vehicle, title, 2 keys and all the service history records. You will have 7 days to check and inspect the vehicle and its documents.
Step 3) After the 7 days you have to make a decision:
- You keep the vehicle and the money is released from the Escrow to me.
- You decline the vehicle, the transaction gets canceled. The vehicle is being picked up from your door and returned to the warehouse. All your money is refunded back to you.
The auto shipping company will take the vehicle of all the paperwork and title transfer if you accept the vehicle. Because I know this vehicle is in pristine condition, I will pay entirely for delivery and for return, in case you decline to purchase it So there are no headaches for you. It is like buying a vehicle locally, the only difference is that you get the chance to drive it for 7 days before final buy.

Please let me know what you decide!
Thank you.

Good Ole Charlie did ok using an email provider that assists those serving in the military overseas and only slipped up with 3 things;
1-The car is photographed in front of the dealers banner who he swiped the photos from.
2-He listed it in North Carolina, but says it is in Billings Montana!
3-One grammar screw up (usually more denoting translations) Last price is $12,500 not lowest price or bottom line etc..
So I bit again he ran like a child caught with their hands in a cookie jar after I told him I had a friend who lived near Billings Montana and I would head over with cash and a trailer.
The point of the story is do not entertain these websites with hidden contact info for the seller, usually fake ads/scams or they are trying jump in as a 3rd party seller collecting money and then forward some of it if any to the actual seller and walk away leaving your pockets empty or having you and the seller work out the actual sale after someone got paid and sometimes it is the actual seller receiving some money! They could sell a car for lets' say $15,000 then contact the seller and offer the actual seller $13,000, if agreed send the seller $13,000 (if that happens at all) then give the seller and buyer all the contact info, not bad $2000 for doing nothing! 
BEWARE!
