Message	I've been looking at a 1992 Z thats for sale. It has a ton of mods done to it, and they are asking less than 4k for it. I emailed the person, and they said they only go through ebay motors, to avoid scams (heh). So, I looked and looked, the car is not listed on Ebay. I emailed the person back stating that I was not that far from them, would they take cash in person? Their response was that they are out of town on business, and that they had set up shipping with Ebay and a company called DAS before they left, and the car is in a DAS warehouse. All they need is my name, address, and phone number, then Ebay would contact me to get the rest of my info, complete the transaction, and arrange shipping. This just screams scam to me. Has anyone else ran into this? ECZA Member #1000
