Buyer beware: all that says it's "Superior" isn't

In this part of the world, a business calling itself "Superior (fill in the blank)" doesn't raise any red flags.

Between the lake and the city to our east, most things around here have "Superior" in the name.

But if you run across "Superior Auto Sales" of Fargo, ND on Craiglist in your search for a vehicle, steer clear.

Not only has the Better Business Bureau of Minnesota and North Dakota declared them a scam, they've got some good tips to make sure you're not taken for thousands of dollars trying to buy a car from a scam artist.

TheBetter Business Bureau has a spot on their websitewhere you can research companies you're thinking of doing business with, and a lot of other consumer protection information is there, too.

She also loves introducing the different people she meets in her job to one another, helping to forge new "community connections" and partnerships.Lisa has amassed a book collection weighing over two tons, and she enjoys reading, photography, volunteering with Animal Allies Humane Society and fantasizing about farmland.
