Description
I advertised a car for sale on craigslist. A scammer insisted that I get a ViN report from auto scan.com and said that they would pay a portion at the time of picking up the vehicle. They never showed up for our scheduled time and I didn’t hear anything from them after purchasing and sending them the report.
