After buying the tC, I put the RSX on Autotrader.com. A man contacted me about buying the car two days ago and said he was dealing for someone who wanted to buy. Today he said they would buy and he would send me a cashiers check for $5,000 over my asking price and I was to cash it and send the $5,000 to the man who would ship the car back to them.
If you are ever selling your car, don't fall for this scam. The cashiers check is a fake and all they are trying to do is get you to send $5,000 to an accomplice. They usually try and put the deal off to Friday, so the cashiers at the bank won't be paying attention or won't have time to find you if you are gone for the weekend. Anyway, you get stuck with the $5,000 check you sent to his partner.
My wife works at a bank and was telling me about how this happened to a kid about a month ago, so I was looking for it when it happened to me. Tell your friends...it may be years before you or they want to sell a car, but it could happen to them then.
