Hi there

This is our camper which we legitimately purchased after purchasing on eBay. But we viewed the camper and inspected in person prior to purchasing it. (Something all new buyers should do!)
It was living in Dorset prior to us buying it so nowhere near Scotland.
We have seen these scams where people copy the EBay page. The legitimate eBay listing for this was posted in February. So the scammer obviously waited until the purchase had gon through hoping that neither us or the seller saw this hoax ad.

But we also learnt the hard way too.....
we too got an attempt scam trying to purchase a DIFFERENT camper in January. The ad even quoted a spray shop, which confirmed the existence of the van. But, Same story, as used in the scam used in this thread but the IP address of the scammer was in Mountain View, California. (Check the IP Address of the emails sent!!!)
my partner posted it to this sight as we found the same scammer doing the same scam on horse boxes and motorbikes too.
my advice:
DONT purchase unless you view.
DONT send money as its always cash collection,....
be vigilant folks as some people will screw you over!
