fender Stratocaster Corona California, serial-z6028678 real of fake ?
If it doesn't begin with those exact 4 letters, then it is from some other Fender series. California Series guitars are the only Fenders ever made with serial numbers starting with 'AMXN'. These letters stand for American/Mexican/1990s. The first number of the serial number will tell you if it is a 1997 or 1998.

Hanif,
It look real to me, though modified a bit.
By the serial number, it was made at the Corona Plant (Fender), USA in 2006 or early 2007, which makes it a 2006 model.
Production Number: 28678
Production Number: 28678
Those look like aftermarket pickups in the neck and bridge positions (Seymour Duncan Hot Rails maybe?).
And the pick guard appears to be delightfully-after-market vintage.
Very nice, all in all.
What are they calling the model, and how much do they want for it?
Any idea whose signature that is on the back of the headstock?

Hanif,
That seems like a perfectly reasonable price for a guitar in that apparent condition.
I myself do not have any personal experience with buying guitars online, though I do know plenty of people who have had very good luck with such endeavors.
It goes without saying, buying in-person (and being able to place your hands on the guitar before laying the money down) is preferable.
But that is not always possible!

Don't buy it. It's a Chinese copy and that serial number may have been used/abused several times already. At present a 'Fender' Telecaster with the same serials is being sold in one of my FB Groups. You can get one like that from aliexpress at less than $200, $60 at the cheapest. Look at the attached pictures.

I Googled the serial number and found this page. If I had just checked the Fender site I would have just gotten manufacturing dates without knowing if it was intended for a strat or tele. The fakes are getting better and they are now using legit numbers. Unlike Gibson which can give you the exact models, finish/colors, and dates, the Fender verification system leaves much to be desired.

Yes, Andres
And with so many guitars featuring the same serial number, it's sure to be a Chinese fake.
