Maybe not a 'new' scam, but a new twist.

I've read many warnings about car-finders, but this is my first experience with a fake buyer. I'm wondering if any of the other sellers have had similar experiences. Once I responded that I though he was a nigeria scammer, his prompt e-mails suddenly stopped. I also demanded that if he were legitimate, we would complete the transaction via paypal.

No word yet. None expected.

This world has a lot of jerks in it... The time I wasted writing a detailed description of the car was time I could have spent on something important.
