Buyer sends text asking for a final price you will accept for the vehicle. You must only reply by email????
He/she then sends the email about a story of how they cant see or get to the car but they are happy to buy the vehicle and they will pay through pay pal and send a agent to collect the car????
This is as far as I took it and told him he can have the car as long as I had a bank balance transfer or cash from his agent on collection. No reply as of yet. I have been told the pay pal message you receive is fake and it says the payment has been received when it has not take place. As I didn\'t go this far I cant verify this.
Always type in the phone number/name given there is always a trail behind a scam and this is one of them.

Since you’re here …
we have a small favour to ask. More people are visting Scamdex and Scamalot than ever but advertising revenues are falling fast and we have no 'product' to sell. And unlike many informational websites, we haven’t put up a paywall or membership barrier – we want to keep our site as open as we can. So you can see why we need to ask for your help. Scamdex/Scamalot websites takes a lot of time, money and hard work to keep running. We do this because we hate to see our fellow humans getting scammed out of their hard-earned money by low-lives.
