I have found someone who is selling thier car for a low price. the reason for them selling it for a low price is because he cant use it in denmark, its not the right "specs". I would love to buy this car for that price, but i dont kno how i could make it a secure transaction since its over seas. I live in florida. He said he would pay for the shipping costs. But im pretty sure i would have to pay him before he sends it.
Is there any way that i could make this transaction a secure one??

Most foreign cars have to be made emmission ready and safety ready for US standards too. You could set-up some sort of escrow account in Denmark, where he isn't paid until you get the car.

This is a scam. I repeat -- THIS IS A SCAM!
Do NOT cross go, DO NOT send any money, credit card numbers, bank draft info, etc., etc.
Alert your local DA. This is a twist on one of the oldest smoke and mirror scams since the internet came into being.
You are on the verge of losing a BIG pile of money and you will NOT be getting this persons virtual car.
