And the police have said that the scams are becoming more prevalent.

lol in a way it good to happen to them because most people who want to buy a car they always want to break you down for a cheaper price like they want to get the vehicle for next to nothing. I heard of a guy who came to buy a car and he meet up with the seller in town next to a business place with cash in hand the seller took the money and told the guy to wait there he going and do something higher up the street not to far, poor jab the buyer he waited for over an hour and never saw anyone again Loool
Like seriously, in 2023 there are still stupid people!! Who buys a vehicle without seeing it, driving it, inspecting it to ensure that its ok, even bringing a known mechanic. I hate scammers/thieves and they should face the full extent of the law, however the victims,majority of times bring it on themselves…
