Yes that's very suspicious, unless something happened in the buyer's world over the past few days.
I'd notify the DMV, and if you've also not received payment, do not allow the shipper to onload.

Guys, At this time I am advised NJ DMV cannot do anything. They had said it sounds like a scam be weary. I am passing this to all members to be aware of this member at this time till further clarification of a sale or not. This shipment has been put on hold. The member uses login M6scout , Bob corivi tel. # 203 830 9499 I listed the info. to protect our members till I find anything that this is not a possible scam. Please be advised. VT

You might consider filing a police report, too.
Thanks for sharing the previous info Vinne!

In my state, a copy of the title is just a piece of paper. Only the original is valid. Knowing a VIN doesn't do a heck of a lot of good either. But hope you don't have troubles from the guy.

Hi Guys, I hope everyone had a great christmas & New Years. I am keeping my fingers crossed. The guy in question answered me back and stated he will not be buying my truck because he is buying a house.????? WELL, Left hand house...right hand M37...I pick wait for it, wait for it...M37 he lost...Maybe he just got cold feet. Sooooooooo, lets hope for the better hes a NoN Buyer and not an evil person. Thanks guys for listening, VT, Although (always) lets keep all us guys protected internally with the forum.
