VW T2 Bay Camper Van 1976 Bus Transporter (NOT A SCAM)
This post is from 2015 when the legitimate owner of the campervan was subjected to a scam. There was an ebay listing posted by a scammer using details of a legitimate campervan in order to hoodwink unsuspecting purchasers. This has NOTHING to do with the actual owner of the campervan in question.
As usual if considering making a purchase through ANY auction or online website you should always go and see the vehicle first.
