Flippers who call and try to low-ball the price on your car. The latest was a guy with a bullshit sob story about his daughter, and offered me $14K for my listed $16K vehicle. If I wanted to have something shoved up my ass, I’d take it to a dealer.
I never used to put an email contact on there because of all the scammers who sent the same message for everything. “Does the item still operate properly?” Yeah, it’s a fucking book, moron.
My sister had similar problems with selling her Nissan 300ZX on Craigslist. If it wasn’t a flipper wanting to rice it out, it was a hooker.
You know, the two are not mutually exclusive.
No, I looked it up on the internet.
Cute boy! Looks like some of the adolescent billies I had. The only time I had someone who wanted a billy specifically, it was a thickly accented man who wanted to roast him. I had more than one highly aggressive bastards and I almost did it. Instead I sold a few off to (hopefully) service their own herds.
But yeah, that young pic is mostly just “cute” to me and I could see someone thinking “Aww my son wants a goat to pet, that one looks adorable!”
Cool! Whats the url? I had no idea there was a website you could use to get private info based only n a license plate!
Yeah I’d like to know that as well. I’m trying to buy a car now on CL and its just 99% flippers who have no history and fake carfax reports.
One of them is PublicData.Com
It’s the cheapest one (I only pay $19 per year. I get 600 look ups plus a bonus 300 for renewing every year). But be warned it can be very hit & miss. But even with that it’s worth twenty lousy bucks a year.
Some of the better services can cost 50 times that.
Contrary to what Guinastasia posted I am not about to use my resources at work just to [del]pull a prank[/del] return someones property to them. (Hey, they had taken it. It’s theirs. No deposit, no return!)
Cool. So if I come to your house and take your car it’s mine right? So what is your address?
If I put it on free stuff on CL it would be.
emphasis added.
So it might not have even been the right address? 
It was right. Same vehicle/trailer was there.
By hit & miss I mean sometimes nothing will come up. I suspect this company buys the info CD’s that are available to licensed investigators in some states and then making them available online piecemeal.
When I used to do PI work on the side I had an account with the DOT of a couple of states. I could call and get any plate or even just run a name and get every vehicle that person owned. For a smaller fee I could buy the CD’s and just run the info myself. The problem with the CD’s is, vehicle ownership changes every day. So the info on the discs can be considered quite old after just a few months.
Hence, hit & miss.
Her words, not mine. 
The adorable angle. Woman hung up in a huff when I tried to reason with her that her adorable snowflake could get gored by a 75+lb taco filling.
