I just looked at Autotrader.com web site. Check out the "Fraud Awareness Tips" link at the bottom. I hope you got a good deal but I think scam. Be safe.

As this may/may not be a scam, I hope you didn't pay him yet. I wouldn't give him one cent til you have title and keys in hand. Just cover your *** on this. I noticed you live in GA too, how did I miss this ad when I was looking???? I would have been on that like white on rice!

Good luck on it being real.

I'd be willing to bet that this is a scam. Has happened time and time again. If I were the prospective buyer, I'd get phone numbers and addresses for the seller and where the car is located. $10 says he gives you the run around about those. Sorry to say dude, but most likely you've been had (scam).

unless you are meeting the guy in person and he has the title don't go for it. Sounds like a classic 419 scammer. Does he type poor english also? He's probably from Nigeria.

*edit- I see scams on autotrader all the time.
