There simply isn't any evidence whatsoever of anything even slightly illegal or fraudulent here. Could it be a scam? Sure, but there's no point in calling "the authorities" just because there's a chance that it could be some kind of scam somehow even though nobody actually proposed to do anything fraudulent. When and if the guy proposes that you kick him back some cash, then you have something, but that cash kickback is the whole point of the alleged scam, and if it's not there, then that's not what this is.If you want to be on the Vigiliant Citizens Patrol with Brother Shatterstone, what you should do is go ahead with the deal and insist that you wait to see if the check clears before signing the title over (that's the acid test), but honestly, I don't think that's really the kind of thing you're cut out for. Just let it go - don't call anybody.</blockquote>
