<prompt> Human: So a person from my university is trying to purchase my car over installments. They are offering me a grand more than my asking price, and willing to pay interest and give me details to a trust fund with more money than the value of the car. Sounds a bit suspicious but our mutual friends seem to think hes worth trusting. Is there a way I can reduce my risk in this situation? He says he cant take a loan due to high interest since his credit is new... any advice?  <response>: So a person from my university is trying to purchase my car over installments.

Do you know how to lawfully repossess the car - including finding this guy and delivering notice - in your state, if he fails to pay?If the answer is no, then this is a bad idea.
