It's a great car for $21k. Here's the link: https://inlandempire.craigslist.org/cto/4692250935.html
Unfortunately, the real owner of the car and not a scammer is trying to sell it here for $63,500: https://www.autobrokercenter.com/1963_Austin-Healey_3000_236757939.veh

Craigslist is just loaded with these too good to be true scams. For all the effort they put into it, I wonder if the scammers ever get any money at the end of the day. Easiest way to catch the scam is to do a Google image search on one of the ads photos. Download the photo to your computer, then open the Google image search box. There is a camera in the box and when you click on it, it will allow you to upload the photo from your computer. Enter the search and you'll find the other places the picture is on the internet, which usually includes the legitimate original ad.

Now that's pretty neat - didn't know you could do that. Had the scam happen to a BT7 I had some years ago where my ebay ad was duplicated down to everything except the contact info. Reported it and was pulled but would love to make it a capital offense for those scum balls if caught !!!
