Autotrader scammers
I have a car for sale on Ebay & Autotrader. Theres a canny bloke from Norfolk been in touch, and is probably going to buy it.
Got this email from someone else via autotrader
Hello
I am interested in your vechicle posted for sale on auto trader website
What is your best price for the vechicle?
Are you the first owner? do you have all the documents and receipts of purchase?
Thanks
Terry
So i replied and gave Terry the sales pitch, expected a reply back the same day but didnt. Waited three days then recieved this reply -
Hello,
Thanks for your quick response and am also excited to hear from you
the vehicle is still available for sale and thanks for the information
you just gave about the vehicle and am quite excited to hear from you
that the vehicle is still in great conditions.Since all the details
you put on the advert are updated and real,i think there is no need
for me to be worrying i think i have found what am looking for.
I will make an offer of £1,850 which I think is fair enough for the
car because i know the worth of the vehicle and more so what you’ ve
stated about the vehicle details in the advert page and the
maintenance of the vehicle you’ve spent so far since you bought the
vehicle.
I will take care of the shipment I have a private shipping company
who’s going to handle it professionally for me both the shipping cost
and other necessary activities concerning the shipment of the vehicle.
The money would CLEAR into your bank account before any transaction
would take place.
My preferred method of payment is by bankers draft or Cheque in a
(GBP) that’s the only option and safest way for me to transfer CASH
which am going to instruct my business associate to post you a bankers
draft via post office.
The bankers draft is going to clear in your bank within 3 to 5 working
days days before i shall take the possession of the vehicle .
Hopefully to hear back from you today in order to proceed further with
the payment and shipping arrangements as soon as possible.
Bankers draft only required your FULL NAME and your POSTAL ADDRESS.
I did NOT request for your bank details.
In my next email i shall let you know the details that is required
from you to enable the bankers draft gets to you by post office.
I look forward to hear back from you today.
Cheers..
Terry
