Seriously, if I wasn't certain it was a scam, I would have already BIN. Maybe in another 5 years.

This is a scam. I emailed seller. It's one of those overseas things. What a crock. It's the second one I came across in two days. You know what they say.....if it's way too good to be true.................

Default What does that mean

What does it mean "It's one of those overseas things."

As in take you money and run kind of foreign? Where you wire the money and never hear from them again or is there some other kind of scam that I should be aware of.

Just before I bought my Porsche, I was negotiating with a guy from Germany that had a USA-spec M3 advertised for sale in Autotrader. He had pictures of the VIN sticker and everything. I later found the exact same photos and exact same VIN in an eBay ad from a legit dealer in Texas. I continued to push on the deal to see how he would scam me. It eventually came out that he wanted me to deposit my funds in a Euro Escrow company of his choosing. When I recommended a "real" escrow company, I never heard from him again.

Be very careful out there...
