How to be safe in Selling your car

Read about a guy in western Canada who sold his 69 Charger. The purchaser showed up with an truck and trailer and the seller took pictures of the guy,truck and trailer. Paid with a certified check. He then finds out the check is a forgery. Truck and trailer were also stolen.
I thought maybe it would be good to list some pointers on how to sell your car. I know recently I advertised my Magnum and got a bunch of junk including the marine biologist at sea who wanted to buy it for his father. Wanted to transfer the money to me and have his people pick the car up. Couldn’t get his location to send a missile.

Recently in buying vehicles, I have used a bank draft. I’m sure these could be forged as well. What precautions do you take in selling?
