Just wanted to relate my experiences trying to sell my 370z thru the craigslist on the west coast thru craigslist. Its a 2012 with only 1000 miles on it.
So far I have a lot of locals trying to give me credit union or cashiers checks.
A lot of ppl trying to find out the vin numbers and where the car is stored or can be seen.
Some are trying to buy the car and arrange to have it shipped to other countries.
An interesting thing I found is that even if a person calls you or sends you a text message and it appears to be from your local calling area, there is actually software or phone apps that allow you disguise your phone # and have it appear to be a local, when the caller could actually be in another country etc.

This morning I had a real interested party wanting to see the car and buy it right away and he was all set to go until, this guy really want to know the VIN and where the car was.
I said I would show him the car at the local PD or BOA with a lot of armed bank guards around. turned out to no longer send any replies and doesn't answer his phone when the # is dialed locally.
