Yeah, on the 3000GT, I traced the address in the e-mail from the "ebay rep" to a post office in FL...

I always suggest googling the info, seller's e-mail, address, phone numbers, etc... do your research on them, and search the vin's too, sometimes they're posted on several auction sites, and that's a dead giveaway...

Not only that, I had a friend who really bought a Supra online, but he told the guy he was going to fly out and see the car before any money was exchanged... Everything worked out perfectly...
