SCAM ALERT - $6900 '04 STi on cars.com
Guys,
I've been looking for WRXs and pursued a rather suspicious listing. It's an '04 silver STi being sold for $6900, hahaha.

Anyways, the e-mail is pretty much the same as I've seen posted before:
Hi,
The price listed is correct 6,900. First of all I need to tell you that I have moved at my parents in Plano TX after I have lost my job, and the car is locked in a garage in Boise ID, at my old address.
I am selling the car only because I have recently lost my job, and I don't have any savings, the bills and the loans I have to pay are too high. I was forced to move at my parents as I was not able to pay my rent, and right now I need to sell the car as I can't afford it.
This is a completely stock car mechanically with full documentation of the removal of the rear wing at the time of purchase. Not much to note besides "less than average wear" on this car. This vehicle is in great mechanical condition and it runs and drives very well! It was never smoked in, never raced.
I have all maintenance records, there has never been any mechanical problem and the oil has been changed regularly. It was never involved in any accidents. I have a clear title that come with the car so you don't need to worry about this. There are no other payments on the car.
I have uploaded few pics and you can see them here http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/morgan...bum?.dir=/6658
Please email me back and let me know if you're still interested in the car, and tell me your location. If you need me to i can ship the car.
Regards
Tom

I almost got sucked into one of these but I asked my aunt who worked at the DMV to run the numbers on it and she said I opened up "a huge can of worms" and I gave her the email address and the guys info on where to send the money and she passed it on. Never knew what happened after that.
