<prompt> Human: Ive been trying to sell my car via craigslist for a couple months. So far anyone that came at me with the PayPal bit was obviously a scammer. This persons messages seem much more legitimate, but they want to pay me 10,000 through PayPal, as they claim to be working in New York. How can I avoid getting burned and owing PayPal 10k? Are there ways to verify people on PayPal? Ive only ever used it for small, online purchases for a quick checkout.  <response>: This is a scammer. They may seem more legitimate, but they arent. They pay in person with cash or you go into their bank with them while a certified cashiers check is made. No other means is acceptable.
