How can you tell if a used car has flood damage?

Scammers will try to resell flood-damaged cars, but there are common warning signs you can spot right now.

GREENSBORO, N.C. — First thing you want to do -- IS LOOK FOR mildew, water stains, even sand and silt under the carpet floor mats... EVEN THE PLASTIC DOOR JAM NEAR THE SEAT. 

You're gonna want to check for rust around any screws in the center console, and even in the spare tire compartment as well. 

And look closely at the wheels. They could be coated in a white powder or re painted to make them look new.
