I've seen something with "stolen" pics of Packards for sale being posted on various sites. I saw a 1938 Packard coupe for sale in Washington State. On another website I saw the exact some pic listing the car in Pennsylvania at some ridiculously low price.

I contacted the seller in Washington state telling him some charlatan had his car "for sale" in various other states at a give-away-price.

The owner thanked me and removed the ad.

It seems the modern meaning of liberty is getting away with anything no matter how absurd.

You know I wish the government would do its job and investigate all these scammers and hackers and the like I am getting so tired of hearing of friends emails getting hacked I also had my email hacked last year those endless phone calls offering AUTO WARRANTY REPAIR. These are CRIMES and they need to be prosecuted!

Couldn't agree with you more. A 443 Packard sedan with custom body advertised on one website for about $30k. The same car on a reputable website for about $80k -its correct value. I advised the not so well know website- no surprise, no reply. Furthermore, there are many vintage car websites with out of date listings of cars that were sold years ago, is a scam too. They get paid for the time you spend searching dozens of dead listings on their sites. Again, when you advise them of cars sold ages ago, no reply. I have even suggested of a few of them that a "DATE" is assigned each listing - woops, NO REPLY.

There was a 745 being advertised from a number of different places and was obviously a scam.

However, there are real problems. Catalytic converter theft is not being investigated and that is grand larceny. A $500,000 bulldozer was stolen in D.C. and the police weren't interested. The owner rented a plane and found where it was. The police only got mad for his initiative.

Junkazon is a fence for stolen goods, unarmed capital police are murdered in a riot and it is covered up, a drug company creates drug addicts that die by the hundreds of thousands and the owners get to keep billions, and so on, and so on.

When people complain about shoplifting and such my response is that the rich aren't setting a very good example.
