How the scam works:
This occurs when a vehicle is listed online with a written description giving one price, e.g. $12,000, while the photo attached has a different price written on it, e.g $8,500.
When asked about it, the crook will say the price is $8,500 explaining it was reduced for sympathy reasons, such as a recent death in the family. The victim pays thinking they got a great deal, but never receive the car.
How to avoid:
Buy only if you can go and pick it up in person. Paying up front thousands of dollars for something you can't try is something you should never do.
Make your friends and family aware of this scam by sharing it, using the buttons provided.
