It's a scam. And, please note the first rule to avoid scams on craig's
list: Deal locally. In reality, that means deal with people you can
meet personally, buy things you can see, touch, check out. I bought my
van after it was advertised on Samba, and it was not local. However, I
travelled to see it, met the seller, had the vehicle inspected, checked
out the ownership history, ............. . And I did not buy it until
all these things were satisfied.
I would not buy anything from the person who sent the email below.
