Am I missing something, surely no one is stupid enough to part with money without getting the car, or is it just nicked & on the wrong plates - in which case there'd be no paperwork?
I can never understand how theses scammers get any money out of these deals, thereagain I can't see how anyone ever makes any money out of spam either - anyone want 3 bucketfuls of viagra I purchased by email recently.

there are many scamms, and just as many idiots. i am sure the millions thats bben creamed from idiots has gone a long way to helping the scammers to live the high life and have nice boats lol.........

My wife says we're interested in a bucketful Do the buckets have lids by the way?

My Mrs want's me to get a bucketful too!

(lid not neccessary)

i suppose an email would be sent after you won it saying they want a paypal deposit for whatever reason- they wouldnt get all the money but could get a few hundred.
i think the trouble is that the scammers online are (on the whole) pretty damn stupid- if there was a more realistic buyitnow then maybe someone would actualy buy it??????

On a thread here recently it was mentioned there was the guy who took £5K with him for an SLK or something.

Whilst waiting for the 'vendor' to turn up a van rolled up with 3 masked men in it who robbed the buyer and his Mum and brother who were with him.

Thats one way they get the money!

Cheers,

Maybe he's made an innocent typo and it's meant ot be £13,000. Might be sitting wondering why no-ones bidding!

Pre approved bidders only,
you email the guy, he replies with a phone number to ring
you call and get billed lots

Sorry, lost all the viagra - the lids popped off the buckets & it's spilled everywhere!!!

yeah, there are so many ways to scam people out of money, i messaged him out of interest, as i am a bit nosy and love a larf, will let you know IF there is a responce, and when he expects me to hand over money etc, lol, i really do love a larf... so funny. i think i will meet, take my immigration mates and prob get a whole bunch of illegals in the process, haha haha haha.....

well well well. the car is uk registered, but somehow, i think it was his job, he is currently in the netherlands, and he will have the car shipped back to the uk, all inclusive for the tiny sum of £3000....... he is 100% genuine and wants to asure me that he is a business man and is genuine, also, he said he wants to put my mind at ease, cos hes genuine!!!!!!

wat a twat, i do love to have a larf at these scammers. wanted me to let me give the money to a "3RD" party till i have the car and have tested it, then agree its ok so he then gets the money, i can tell you after being told hes genuine, i really was so tempted to just send him, sorry the 3rd party £3000 and then sit waiting for the car to arrive, trouble is, i am not likely to live past 100, so not sure it will arrive before then............ hahahaha

we do love em!!!!!!!!!!
