I have noticed a lot of craigslist scams, as long as you can
1. Get the VIN (check it with DOT if you don't want to carfox)
2. Pick it up in person
3. Pay in person using normal money assuming title in hand.

How to recognize a vehicle scam attempt on CL:
[...]
Price is unusually low - if a deal sounds too good to be true, it probably is!
[...]
Stories about divorcees or departing servicemen needing to sell quickly at a low price are generally fraudulent

I shipped to Basic with three weeks notice, but many Soldiers had more time, even months, and I do not know anyone that sold their car before going to boot camp. Before going to Germany, I had two weeks of leave and the Army would have shipped my car, but I had my sister sell it. I deployed one year later, with months of notice, and the Army would have stored my car if I still had it.
It could happen, though.
I do not know much about divorcées, though, or at least them selling cars.
