Virtual vehicle vendor scams
Scammers simply post pictures and descriptions of cars used in other ads, and then ask interested buyers to wire money to supposed third-party escrow businesses operated by the scammers. It is nearly impossible to get money back. https://craigslistt.us/virtual-vehicle-vendor-scams/
Scams involving motorized vehicles have flourished during the COVID-19 pandemic, and there has been a reported surge in overall used car sales. Many buyers ask to inspect the car or to meet the seller in person, but scammers often use COVID-19 as an excuse to avoid meeting, which makes this type of fraud more successful.
