This guy is trying to scam me in a Crag's List car selling deal where buyer got lured by a fantastic deal, sending in the money in a hurry and never see the money again.

Is it possible to get the police on him and have this perp arrested? If not, what would be the next best thing to punish this type of scammers? I'm too inexperience to play with him in a baiting game.

I hope you didn't get scammed, Sad

There's not a lot you can do, in all probability he is isn't in your country, the cheques could be posted by an innocent third party who thinks they are working for a *work from home* scheme.
