I'm selling my car and have advertised it on a few free websites. I have a got a few replies from people saying they'll buy the car, without even seeing it, and asking for my address where they'll send me a bank draft and someone will come to pick the car up. I've asked for cash, but they've said they can only give a bank draft. I've emailed them back and asked if they're genuine to ring me but they don't, they just email back again asking for my address. Do you think this sounds like a scam? I think maybe they'll give me the bank draft, take the car and then cancel the draft, so I'm left with no money and no car. Or if I lodged the draft into my bank account and it clears could they trace the account it went into and take it back out somehow? I'm desperate to sell the car as I really need the money but I'm afraid I'm being conned. Has anyone else been contacted this way when trying to sell their car?
