Heh, just sold my old, non-working car on craigslist, and discovered what I can only presume is a new (to me anyhow) phishing scam. Basically they send an email saying they're interested in the car, but need to know what the insurance cost through -insert site- would be, along with whatever excuse why it needs to be that site that they've made up. Obviously this makes no sense as a legit inquiry, and the only motive I can see is getting the personal data. Just something to be aware of if anyone else is selling a car.
