Watch Out for Overeager Buyers!

Fraud Alert for Sellers:
If you get an overly polite, generic email in response to one of your ads, with the the anxious respondent asking how to pay for the item you want to sell, it's probably a scam.

Here's the deal. These chuckleheads will send you a cashier's check or money order drawn on what will turn out to be a worthless nonexistent bank. They're even generous enough to overpay for the item or for shipping, but will ask you to send the item immediately via a well-known shipper.

We know most Fizmo users are smarter than that. But just in case your less-than-stellar brother in law gets taken in by this flimflam, please spread the word.

I have a 1998 Ford Windstar for sale. I have just replaced the brakes, serpentine belt, and had the oil changed and the power steering fluid flushed. Tune-up done in March, new battery in October. Cold A/C, power locks/windows, cruise control, roof rack, clean interior, tinted windows, no body damage.

I have just spent over $300 (I will give you all receipts with purchase) making sure this vehicle will do right by its new owner. It runs great but it does have a lot of miles on it. The previous owner drove from Columbus to Cleveland twice a day for his job. However, I am still selling it below blue book value.

I am selling it b/c I am no longer doing childcare and do not need a minivan. Would make a great family van or work van- both bench seats come out. Call or email me with questions. 614-231-5996.
