I've got the Civic listed on Craigslist for sale and I got a voicemail earlier about a guy wanting to come check out the car. So I call him back and he said he wanted to talk to his wife first then call me back.

So he calls me back and asks if I would accept a personal check. He said it would be from the "Armed Forces" bank so I kinda thought it over and told him I would take it under a couple conditions.

I told him that I would create a document stating that I would hold the title until the check cleared. At that point I would give him the title. And I would also be pulling my plates from it when giving him the car.

"That sounds good. Let me check with my wife."

(That was nearly 2 hours ago) I'm thinking scam. hfawk: Nice try.
