you sure it’s a scam?  
You don’t buy a car w/o seeing it first so how could they scam you?

that’s why you get a uvip…or run the vin. You’d be a fool not to spend the $30 and do it yourself for any newer cars.

But yeah, I guess there will always be people who will take the risk…or just not know.

just ask where the car is located and say you live 10min from there and pretend to see if he’ll meet up.

if he switches to another location, say your going up to that place in the near future too! lol
