Well, I'm planning on selling a car. It's currently sale pending, but two guys called over the weekend saying they want the car and will wire me the money right away. I'm thinking of opening up a seperate checking/savings account and as soon as it is in, transfer it over to my primary account.

What do you guys think? With all these frauds going on, is there such thing as wiring fraud or is wired money pretty much golden?

This will be from within the country (Kansas or Chicago depending on which buyer I sell it to).

The best way,,.. go to his bank, and pick up CASH.

Alot of people take cash for cars, even is it is 20K.

That's the safest

I've bought and sold cars with cash before, but the problem is these guys are out of state. Is there a way I can walk into their branch and pick up the cash?

Opps. I thought he was local.

I've never bought out of state before.. So I can't help ya. Sorry

ask them to wire the money to you before you send the car.

You could always use an escrow service.

Probably the best way. to thing about wiring money is they have all your outing numbers, etc. just like hne you give someone a check

what i do is get a cashiers check and wait for it to clear. then they can get there stuff.
