New to me scam.

How about I unofficially finish up this thread?
The Kijiji ad was a complete waste of time. Sure I only had it up for a couple of days but in total I got 5 spam texts from various area codes offering to send deposits if I would provide the report from AUTOCARFAX.com and one phone call from a local dealer saying that if I was tired of dealing with people I could just bring the van in and they would write me a cheque.
My wife just posted it on FB marketplace tonight.
It can't be worse, right? RIGHT?
 
I got this one at 11:40 last night.
