Don't say that. I just sent a Western Union Money order to them so I could get it before anyone else beat me to it. It looks like a deal that's too good to be true. Since I totaled my car, I wanted to get a good deal on another one. BTW, The Money Order was the fastest way to get them the money so, I must be the winner. Right.

I don't understand how these scams work if they don't answer any return contact.

Nah, I don't have 4K to send anyone. I was just playing. But, I still wonder why it's 4K.

Never pay by WU or money order, send cash, it's much safer.

I was gonna buy it, but it’s $4001. I cant swing that extra $1 or else I’d be all over it.

The actual real company has some good reviews. Sucks they have scumbags using their name.

No I think he's serious. I was going to suggest the same thing, except meet them in a dark alley, cash in hand, and tell them they can just deliver the car at their convenience..... But maybe that's just me.
