I know a broad who was approached with this same scheme to sell her car.

She actually thought it was legit.

STREET RULE #1: IF IT SOUNDS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE, THEN IT IS.

Thanks for the help lol I kinda thought it may have been legit since she was talkin about goin through paypal and I dont really hear about to many sellersgetting scammed through paypal.

Why don't you wait till she pays you, then deposit it into your bank account. That way you know you have the money. Or can paypal still take the money outof your bank acct if the payment was fraudulent??
