Again, why go through all that trouble if you can sell your car here for a similar amount?

Also: wire transfers can be manipulated as well. Often with wire transfers and cashier's checks, it takes significantly longer for the transactions to clear than what you think. And that's how the scammers get away with it - you wait 2 weeks after cashing the check, and everything seems ok, so you send your $$ & goods off to the scammer. Three weeks later, and voila: you get a note from the bank stating that the check / wire transfer was invalid.

Be very, very careful.
