Selling your vehicle onlineThe South Simcoe Police Service offers these tips for selling a vehicle online: • Never ride along with the person who is test driving your vehicle and never agree to an unreasonable test drive length. • Always obtain identification, including a driver's licence from the person test driving your vehicle and make a copy. • Never meet potential buyers/sellers alone. • Be suspicious of anyone who walks to the location of the test drive. If they leave a vehicle behind, check it to make sure there is no one hiding in it with another set of keys to drive it away when they have your vehicle. • Copy down the licence plate of any vehicle the potential purchaser is driving. • Never chase anyone who you believe is trying to steal your vehicle. Let it go and call police. • Do not give out your personal information until the deal is closing. • Keep your vehicle insured until you sell it, if some is trying to steal it, let it go, it is insured. • Accept cash, bank draft or money order. Call to verify all non-cash sales with the bank. Certified cheques, bank drafts and money orders can be fraudulent. Watch for counterfeit cash. • Never accept unreasonable terms of sale or payment plans. Never accept over payment for a vehicle, it may be a scam. • Trust your instincts. |
