This person texted me to buy a car I had advertised in our local print newspaper and online in that paper. We agreed on a price, but I wanted cash. He said no to that, due to past bad experiences (he did not elaborate and I didn't press him for details). I then asked for a cashier's check. He said yes to that. He asked for my name and address to send the Cashier's Check. He said that, after the check cleared, his mover would obtain the car (he's in MN, I'm in MT). Then, the next day, he said that I would be paying the mover out of the funds he would send; i.e. he would include extra, to pay his mover. So, the check would clear, then the mover would contact me and I would pay him, out of the funds Todd had sent by Cashier's Check. This sounded fishy, so I looked up this type of arrangement as a scam. Turns out there are fake Cashier's Checks that are very difficult to identify as fake. It can take several weeks before you find out it was fake. Meanwhile, in this case, I would have paid the mover, already, so then, I would be out the money I paid to the mover. (When you think about it, it makes no sense that you would pay a car mover in full at the point of pickup. I would think they should get paid upon safe delivery of the car, in this case, in Minnesota, not Montana.) I quit hearing from him when I said I would not pay his mover. In other words, that tubed the deal. I think he was trying to scam me.
