    Default scams on trader

    well ive currently been looking for a rx7 or a supra... i guess im jellious on the new ride, lol/jk, but congrats and good luck with it :Mysuprajust8u: and ive just found so many scams on trader in the past few days and heres one more or a few more...

    http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.js...en&cardist=721

    this shit is starting to piss me off because what if someone really did have a good deal but because of these assholes you wouldnt be able to know unless you went one by one and tried to talk to each seller...
    there were more links but they were deleted... ill try to find more

    prices are too good to be true... and if you email the seller they will want you to do a money transfer instead of paying with certified funds like a cashier's check or money order.

    ive emailed all of them adn they start off saying that the car is in the us and then they are over in germany or somewhere overseas with teh army, then there like we want a third party to hold the money till they get the money and you get the car, but there the 3rd party and your getting screwed and they send all this
    "certified" emails for squaretrade and shit like that, but i contacted squaretrade and they never exist... they even searched for the guys name and they have no record of even talking to him. but basically ive learned save up and spend that few other 1000's and make shure you get a car than loosing your money and being rideless

    The squaretrade scam is pretty common. Squaretrade exists, but only for transaction certification and transaction dispute resolution. They do not deal with holding funds or escrow assurance or anything like that.
