Default SCAMMER ALLERT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!

theres a scammer going around buying cars with fraudulent cashiers check
Last night my friend sold his rhd ef9 (gunmetal) TO A GROUP OF SCAMMERS!
they gave him a cashiers check, we were fishy about it, so we held on to the pink slip till the check would clear, we got it all in writing, and they took off with the car. This morning my friend cashed the check, and it was false. Now he has no car, please do not post any negetive feedback, I just want to warn everyone that there a group of scammers claiming that they are from "C&C motorsports" It was two black guys, one tall, the other about 5.8 or so, beware!!!!!!!!!!!!!
they were also driving a dumped white ek coupe with euro taillights, clear headlights, and a yellow and red dealer plate

Just recently i heard there was a few people scamming for cars with fake cashiers checks...Maybe these are those same peeps! You might want to do a search and try to team up with the others against these fools...

should have waited till the check cleared before you gave them the keys.

seems like you have just been armed rob with a check.

Found this on google..

Its a web page that you can use to verify any US bank routing number.

http://yourfavorite.com/checkwriter/verify.htm

This could save alot of people if it were well known that you could look these up. I didnt know until 30 seconds ago.. Spread the word.
