Who called from 3234585319

VinChecked scam.  Listed a vehicle on Craigslist and received a text interested in it.  Then they requested details about the vehicle, then sent a link which leads to VinChecked.com.  I did some quick googling and found this to be a common scam as the company gives a commission to the ones driving the sales.

I literally got a text message from the same number today, as I also have a vehicle listed on Craigslist. The area code was out of state, which is a red flag for me. They also sent a link which lead to VinChecked.com. Here's the exact conversation..

Unknown: "Hello is the 2001 Acura Integra still up for sale?"
ME: Yes it is.
Unknown: "I just saw your ad online - I am set and ready to buy it. Do you have any kind of history report ran about its past?"
ME: I do not currently. But you can come look at it tomorrow if you're serious.
Unknown: "Please will you get one of these http://www.tiny.cc/9zae6x and send it in an e-mail to me-- I have to be sure it checks out clean,"
ME: Are you located in California?
Unknown: "[email protected] is my email address. After I see that, I would like to come over to buy it this week or weekend."
ME: Please answer my question! Plus I'm definitely not going to pay for your history report from some random site, really? If you're real, I can provide you with a full report in person, otherwise we're not doing business.
Unknown: "Sounds good, thanks."

Just the way they talked seemed odd to me, as the grammar, punctuation, and tone were different between each message. And to send me a link in which I have to pay so they can get a report, just screamed scam. I could've not even replied, but I wanted to see where it was going to go. Avoid this number indefinitely.

I also was sailing a vehicle on Craigslist. It was a 96 GMC pickup for $500. When I went to the web site the unknown texter requested. I was not going to put any information into this site. I text them back and told them if they would like to do it I would allow it. I then get a text at 4:30 am. With a stupid responds Unknown texter - “oh that is silly” I then started digging around and found this site.  I blacklisted that number as soon as I could. From now on any number I get a text from that is not in my area code is going to get checked. I would suggest you do the same.
