Car thieves are always thinking of new ways to separate you from your vehicle, but you also have to watch out for car sales scams. These involve separating you from your money either without giving you a vehicle or maybe selling you a stolen car. Just when we thought we’d heard of it all, a man in San Diego, California was robbed of $14,000 he thought was going toward a 1967 Chevy Camaro.

Find out how a guy was scammed into buying a rental Dodge Hellcat here.

Whoever the scammer was had quite the scheme going to “sell” a car he didn’t own. The guy listed the ’67 Camaro and gave some sob story about how it belongs to his father who’s battling cancer and needed the money for chemotherapy. The scammer had the buyer meet him where the car, which didn’t have working brakes, was parked. The actual owner was in the garage and legitimately is battling cancer, so everything seemed just fine.
