Did you ask him about coming to see the car? Tell him you have a guy in Reno who's willing to check it out for you.
Yes it does. I think I can buy this car and resell it here for say $6000 and make and easy $1000 for my trouble plus something for the expenses involved. Escrow seems to be taking payments from moneygram by faxing the Money Transfer Control Number these days. Strange, their web site says different:

Escrow.com accepts wire transfers and in some cases, American Express, MasterCard, Visa, PayPal, United States drawn money orders, United States drawn personal or company checks, or United States drawn cashier´s checks. PayPal and Credit cards are accepted only for Premier Service level, have a limit of $5000, and are subject to Escrow.com approval. Money order and check payments have a limit of $2000, and are subject to a 10 day banking hold. Wire transfer payments are accepted for all amounts and clear upon receipt.

Told him my brother was near Reno so we shall see what he has to say.

DA: Since you clued me in to it, I'll sell it to you for $5500 and I offer easy payment plans.

It has a clear title ready to be signed and notarized on your name.

THIS IS MY LAST PRICE. I will take in consideration only those buyers who are really interested in buying the car, to be sure that I don't waste my time with endless discussions.This way, I shall be assured of the serious intentions. So if you are interested please email me back for next step.



the grammar is incorrect, and disjointed. "on" when they mean in,"last price" when they mean final, non-negotiable, etc. the choice of expressions? "i shall be assured"? "serious intentions"? "e mail me back" (redundant)

English is obviously not the writer's first language; choice of words suggests someone has been taught by british teacher, which of course suggests any number of britain's former colonies. (i'm sure everyone picked up on all this already. who could possibly fall for this crap, as the form is so poor, and the content? well, the price and the low miles? only a real greedy and ignorant fool would even think about touching this one.)

I'm greedy but not that ignorant. Guess it won't be a good match.

Yessir, that is indeed a Florida licence plate displayed on that car. The "K" series was issued in its entirety within the last 12 months also.

Don't apologize. I was looking into it for amusement and learning purposes. Always good to see what the scam is. Like I said, since I am only greedy and not stupid, I won't go for it. I didn't take any insult.
