I've seen these pics recently from a legitimate advert, but I can't remember where.

These people get on my nerves:dapprove:

scamming gimps advertise cars using pictures and information from a recent genuine advert. It obviously attracts peoples attention as they are usually about 4 or 5k less than the going price for a car of that spec, age and mileage. You contact the seller via email, who responds saying they are in germany blardy blah, and will have to ship the car from germany. They also say that the shipping costs of the car are included in the price, then whoever is stupid enough to pay never actually receives the car.

Wow I feel uber silly! lol

Somebody from Italy did that to my old Saxo, I sold it three weeks ago when my mate phoned me saying it was up for silly money, I phoned the guy and pretended to seem interested and I couldnt understand him because he spoke in what i thought was Italian lol.. Thats the problem with pistonheads, its free! They should put a fee on it like Autotrader does.

I just had a warning from PH, saying that someone you e-mailed me about my bike maybe trying scam.

It's nice of them to tell me that 2 months after he sent me the e-mail.

You could tell anyway as he said "i'm interested in purchasing your item" and "whats the last price you will take" and asked for a picture which was already on there.

Some of them must be making money out of people.

Ive had that type of scam every time that ive sold a car. If the english they spoke made any sense then i might have been suckered in.

 

[Ian_182]

Ive just e-mailed them for a laugh

 

[woza]

it was advertised for sale at yately lodge motor company - just up the road from me! it went for £22k

 

[Oggy997]

I advertised my old Clio on there....someone wanted to view thae car at 11pm that night (1.2 8v Grande)

When I told him I was going Stanstead Airport the next week and could meet him local to him, he said:

"Yeah, ok mate, just bring the log book and we can do the deal and Ill drop you back off at home"

Yeah, I would expect a stranger to have a signed log book and take me back home with £1500 on me.

Here is the guys reply


Hello , Thank you for your interest in purchasing my 'Renault Clio HatchbackSport 3.0 V6 255'.The vehicle is in good condition, has no technical damage at all, noscratches or dents, no hidden defects, no smoking. It's fun and robustto drive. Technical inspection and emissions testing is passed andstamped as well. It has title of ownership, cleared of any obligationsor fees and comes with all the documents you need to register it. Theprice I am looking for my car is £9,800 including the shippingcosts,insurance and handling(delivery to UK).You will not have to pay additional taxes for this (VAT reclaimable). I have worked in UK for the last 2 years and I've purchased the carthere. My company wanted me back home, so currently I'm in Spain. I'vebring the car home with me.The car is now located in Spain.I decidedthat is better to sell it because I don `t use it anymore (the wheelis on right side and is very difficult for me to drive it here) and it`s a pitty to keep such a car and not to use it. I realize that is a cheap price for such a car but my specialsituation makes me do things that I wouldn't do in normalCircumstances.I've wanted to register it here and keep it forme,unfortunately import taxes and england regulations made me changemy mind.Now I am trying to sell it back too for such a low pricebecause next week I have a deadline term for paying those taxes.I canoffer you a safe deal for bought of us.Let me know if you areintrested to buy the car.Please feel free to email me with anyquestions you may have. Thank you!
