Warning to online car shoppers: One used car for sale on a Facebook profile may be an ordinary case of someone moving on from their longtime daily vehicle. Five or six, on the other hand, could be a bright red flag to be extremely cautious.
That’s some of the advice from a self-proclaimed expert on TikTok, who said that aspiring car sales dealmakers online are motivated to pull a fast one on buyers and likely to hide any issues that could slow down a sale. That guidance from Texas-based Jaclyn (@learnwithjaclyn) is part of a viral clip in which she advises prospective buyers on how to make a smart vehicle purchase on Facebook Marketplace.
