another one is people selling used camrys and accords;
they say they’ll use some Ebay “assured buyer” thing, and it’s all ok, buyer and seller don’t meet face-to-face, but this is now done alllll the time...”
Nope, it NEVER happens, and you won’t get any “great deal” on the car or ANY car, but they DO get your money.
They’re doing this on craigslist CONSTANTLY.
If the used car deal is too good 2b true?
Yeah, it’s TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE.
CASE STUDY:
Wow, gleaming 2007 camry, no dents or ANYTHING..! For $2,000...?
Oh wow, I wanna be FIRST..!!!

Write to them from a fake email account you just made up.
Yeah, it’s scamming Nigerians, and they’ll say “I’m about to deploy overseas from my military base...”
And they might drop something about “my husband died last month, I no longer need this car but need to get rid of it quick..”
Something like that.
And they’ll say Ebay or Amazon is this trusted third party between buyer and seller. You pay, get then try out for 1 month, and if you don’t like then return shipping is paid for by the US military, etc. etc
It’s all lies; you’ll get NO car. There is NO deal.
They like to use camrys and accords, for some reason.
No, I did not fall for it.
They are pulling this EVERY SINGLE DAY.
