This is a scam. The way it works is they get a CC number from someone in the US. Charge $23,500 it and send you a CERTIFIED cashiers check! Then you cash it and send the car to them WITH the $7500. Once that's gone you think you got your $16,000 for your car, when a few days later someone is knocking on your door demanding their $23,500 back! Even though you have nothing you do with it you are reasponsible for the $23,500 casudr YOU cashed the check. And since the US can't capture criminals from other countries, your fucked! So you just paid someone $7500 to steal your mustang from you!

Hope this helps.

Kris

Email them back saying "Im sorry, but i will not take a cashiers check as part of payment for my vehicle. If you are insterested in my vehicle, i am only accepting cash, or a personal check directly from you in person. Thanks, and go fuck yourself."

So, run with the scam. HAve him write the check out to some homeless guy or something. Then have said guy go cash it, and run with the money like the devil. Slip the guy a few hundred and part ways. Nobody will ever track it. Heheh.
