Idalia brined them, not the scammers. Just to be clear.

right, the scam is taking a flood car north and not disclosing flood damage to an unsuspecting northerner.

It seems like it always happens every time there's a bad flood/hurricane etc.

I remember used lots in Oklahoma getting flooded (heh) with Katrina cars back in 2005-2006.
