The cheque WILL clear, that's how the scam works.

It is either forged or stolen - it will take three days to clear and typically 6 weeks to three months before it is revealed as a fake. At that point, your bank reverses the transaction, debits your account with the amount and your car, your money and the scammer are long gone.
