  • SCAM & FRAUD on Autotrader UK - BMW Z4 23I SDRIVE HIGHLINE EDITION

    I will be regularly scam-baiting the gang who post fraudulent adverts on Autotrader UK and I'll be reporting the money mule bank accounts they direct me to use to the authorities.

    I have reported one so far, but I can't post it up yet as the bait continues. By showing details of the 'scripts' the scammer is using hopefully it will make it easier for the public to realise when they are being scammed.

    Hi,


    I am the one selling the 2010 BMW Z4 23i sDrive on Autotrader.
    I want to confirm that it is still for sale. The car is HPI clear and it is in excellent condition ( interior, exterior and mechanical),FSH with main dealer.It has done 14,950 miles so far.I am a non-smoker so it has never been smoked in and it had no accidents.
    I live in Lieksa, Finland. I used to work for 3 years in the UK as an engineer. Now that my contract over there expired i moved back to Finland. I wanted to keep the car so i took it with me.
    I realized that registering it here is quite expensive and also driving it could be a hassle. So i decided to sell it back there. I tried the local market here but i had no interest in it as it is RHD and due to the high fees needed to register it.
    The price i am looking to get for it is 7000 Pounds, shipping fees included.


    Due to the fact that my job takes almost all of my time and i don't spend to much time at home, i asked an international company to take care of the sale and act as a third party for this transaction.
    Or you can come here and buy it. Lieska (where i am) is at 340km from Jyväskylä airport.
    Please tell me if you wish to proceed and how.


    Kind Regards,

    Hi Xxxxxx
    I have bought the car in the UK, where it is registered; therefore no import taxes or any other taxes must be paid. I will notarize the bill of sale before sending the and I will ship it with it. The shipping will take 10 to 12 days.
    If you would like to verify the car on autocheck or hpi, the registration number is VF10XXX and the VIN number is WBALM32000E492755
    In case you would like to personally buy it here, I could wait for you 2 to 3 days. I do have a number of potential buyers; therefore I cannot wait too long.
    If you want to use a third party service, I would like to use the services offered by Google - Google Payments.
    This works as follows:
    you would send the money to them and they would hold the funds until you get the car to your address and get to check it thoroughly (you get 15 days for testing purposes). Therefore, both I as a seller and you as a buyer will be covered.
    You get 15 days of testing from the moment you receive the car (I will ship it to your home address, insured for the entire value).
    Should you decide to keep it, you will authorize Google to send the payment to me and the transaction is thus completed. In case the car fails to comply with the specified terms (in perfect condition), you are allowed to send it back (return postage at my expense) and ask Google for a full refund.
    Please follow the following link for further details regarding this service: http://google.co.uk/checkout/how-it-...=1200&continue
    If you choose to use this method, please set up an account on http://google.co.uk/checkout/signup....out&authuser=0 and send me the e-mail address used in order that I start the transaction.

    Xxxxxx,


    I will contact Google to start transaction, please let me know when they get in touch with you.
