Vehicle Scam #174 for September 2014 (all on eBay UK)
Scam total now 12,119since April 2013
*******
The people behind the above scam have created a dummy, throw-away eBay account.
These same people have copied and pasted the images shown in the scam from a genuine advertisement from days, weeks or months ago
Any emails sent to the dummy eBay account will - until the scam is shut down - be intercepted by the scammers
Any email enquiries will generate a response asking the interested party to communicate by an independent email address (i.e. outside eBay)
The scammers will say that it is not possible to view the vehicle
Instead, full payment will be demanded and free delivery will be promised
Payments will be paid into a fictitious ESCROW account
******
Common question:-
"How do you know this is a scam?"
Because here is the original eBay listing from August 2014
The scammers copied the advert and slashed the price in half
