Lots of Craigslist scams.

My 18 year old was looking to by his first car and he wanted a 4WD lifted truck. Got all excited by an older F150 with a diesel for a great price.

He called them and was told to send a check and they’d have the car delivered from Kansas or something. It included a sob story about her dead husband and how he loved his truck and she just wanted to get rid of it.

OK, so her husband owned a really nice but older F150, he’s dead and the poor widow wants to practically give the truck away? I don’t think so. Checked it out and it’s a total scam. My son learned a lesson.

Run a google image search using an image from an item like the CL advertised one, you will often find they are images copied directly from eBay selling/sold items!
