			<content-encoded><![CDATA[The 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.]]></content-encoded>
