I got my car on Ebay from a Chevy dealer and had no problems. However I trust Craigslist about as far as I can throw and dump truck.

It might be more of an ID scam,To get all your personal info that they can use later!Did you give any info YET!???

Default Id Fraud

It may be an ID scam to get some of your personal info .drivers lisence# Bank account ,so this said seller can verifie your account? Did she ask for any of this from you???If so and you did!You may want to change your account #s!!Somtimes you get blinded,And are more worryed about missing out on a deal of a life time rather then paying attantion to what kind of info there trying to get from you, Which some peaple are more then happy to give,Thinking there uping their chances of getting,Before someone else does!
