A guy got kidnapped for 4 hours after selling car on Craigslist I found this on another chinese forum.. This guy was trying to sell his car on Craigslist, a BMW 520 and agrees to meet up with a potential buyer. The buyer comes with another friend, they go and test drive in a building on No.3/Saba...then 2 other guys jump into the car with a knife, forcing the owner to give up all his belongings. They hold him hostage for 4 hours while trying to transfer the car insurance to another guy. So scary... the owner posts the entire story online. (in chinese version) http://www.westca.com/News/article/s...=tchinese.html |

that's why I usually bring a friend with me when I sell something |
WTF... and I always buy and sell on CS... damn this is gonna get scary how am i to trust the erotic section now! |
So were they able to transfer the BMW car insurance to another guy? For big-ticket items like a higher-end car, always have a friend around for safety. Quote:

Why would the suspects want to transfer the car insurance over to their name or friend's name? They are either stupid criminals or this story is made up. |

BMW hadn't sold a 520i in Canada for AGES.. I highly doubt it is a "higher end car". The only possiblity that a 520i to be in Canada is via Japan. I smell bullshit. Quote:

china uses craiglist???!!! |
fuck I've always hated selling on craigslist.. |
they went for a test drive of a bmw in a BUILDING. riiiiiiiiiggggghhhhhhttttt EDIT: ok i read part of the article. the buyer wants to test it out at the parkade. that should tip most ppl off. unless they are selling a car out of tokyodrift. nobody requests a test drive at the parkade. |
I couldn't understand the article for shit with Google translate. :( |
lol when i sold my phone, we met up at the casino parking lot! 1000x cameras protection! although i did go into those ppl's cars when they checked over my phone. LOL |

damn i've never had any problems selling on cs or rs, then again I only sell video games, clothes and electronics, nothing too expensive |
thats some scary stuff I always bring a friend with me when I am buying/selling things on CL although I guess it wouldnt matter to much if they had a knife |
