Yeah,
I would agree with everyone... Sounds like a scam. You need the cold hard cash in hand. If a cheque of any type is sent, make sure it clears before you let go of the car.
Thanks,
Allan

i agree with tifo. it would be so simple for them to cancel the cashiers check and make the appropriate check to you. have you asked why not? otherwise, i agree with everyone else it sounds like a scam.

I sent an email back stateing they had two options...
1. send me the $12000 check and I verify its legitimacy with the FBI and US Treasury dept., and I hold it until it clears.
2. They cash the check and send me another check for the correct amt. and I check with FBI and Treasury dept for legitimacy and hold for clearing.
we shall see what happens next.....
