I had a feeling this might be a scam, which is why I asked him for a photo of his odometer. I was talking to my wife about the car on our way to Boston this morning. IF it was legit I'd be crazy not to go see it tomorrow, since he supposedly was only 2 hours from me. But his story about why the price was so low was just suspect. You have to be on guard, all the time. There are scammers out there in droves looking to part folks from their hard earned money. Too bad. SOMEONE would have gotten one hell of a deal.

The killer was the picture on the wheel only Bob. He also used two computers. I can see that, y’all can’t.

Great detectives we have here, including you guys. Scammers beware! Using the 'Search Google For Image' feature can produce some enlightening results.

Well it was from awhile ago probably last used around the 2005 era. Had to of been Talleywacker or Talley one or the other. I never used anything other than that.
Found you, it was Talleywacker. I can reset that email if you want and merge the two names into the old one.

how did this guy really think this was going to go down, someone was just going to wire the money sight unseen and hope for the best? At least have better ammo if you're going to try and be ballsey like that

Yea I guess. A majority of people are just down right dumb so I guess I can see that.

Even more likely that you try to get multiple people to send a deposit that sounds reasonable. Everyone wants to jump on a deal

I can already see it. The one you’re using with this username, correct?
I’ll get when I get on my laptop.

Ya the other guy wouldn’t help me update my email. I think it was an old yahoo or v6f150 email with my name as the to portion.

If you could update my old username to my current email so I can update my password. Then we can merge thise account with it or just delete it. I’ve ran forums before I use to own v6f150.com back in 03/04 but got out of the auto scene in 07. I’m back now buying my uncles 03 cobra so been wanting to post here again
