Be careful of this scam!!

I have a 2001 GTS on e-bay for $53900. I got a call from a guy saying he saw my car on the Autotrader for sale, same pictures, same vin# for $30000. The guy told him to wire $9000 to him if he was serious. Unreal!!

Have you called this guy? There is a number listed.

I tried to call, the number listed was changed to another number, which answers
like a fax. I will try and fax him from my office in the morning.

You called / e-mailed AutoTrader to cancel "his" ad, right?
