Oh yea,I'm searching for a Cayenne. "You send me a wire transfer and I will send you the cAR WITH 5 DAYS TO CANCEL AND RETURN AT MY EXPENSE. i AM 7 STATES AWAY FROM where the car is taking care of my sick aunt..."

LOL. I've seen those. I had a guy with a crazy low priced GTR and due to his wife's illness he wanted to sell it for $45K quick. Same thing like you mentioned with the payment . . .

I reported one such ad early in my search after being given the old divorced, don't drive, car in storage, etc. The ad was removed from cars.com followed by an email thanking me from cars.com. One week later the same car, pictures, description showed up again on cars.com.

I've learned a lot in the last three months...

Yep...i certainly noticed the sudden increase in the scams on cars.com. Not sure if it's only in 911s though. I trick i found useful is to ask them to pay a bit more and I will throw in Brooklyn Bridge for free. Sofar, I haven't bee successful generating a response yet.

Yes there seems to be a LOT more in the past week or 2, it had been one every few weeks and now there are more every day

I've seen the same thing on Ebay. A vehicle for a crazy price and they want to to do Cheeta flips to get the car. When you complain to Ebay they pull the ad only to have the same car with the same photo, same story, show up with the same seller in a different state.

It's the economy. Brings out the worst in people.

I think I saw an 08 GT3 with lowish miles for around 35k recently... I should call that guy and ask if he accepts wire transfers...

You guys need to try to sell something on Craigslist.. I've never received so many offers for Nigerian Lotto tickets in my life..

this scam has been going on for a long time on cars.com, usually they advertise high end vehicles at below wholesale value
