Dear Sir.

I'm a business man and I´m starting this new business where I buy those cars to resell in my country, therefore I would like to know if you´re seller company, or just the owner, because if you're a company I believe you may have more than one car, and if the prices are good maybe we can make business ever I need a new car and maybe I can be your buyer

About this car I would like to know the last price, is cyprus at Turkey Libanon or Israel?, I would like to go there to see the car is that possible?, Which method of payment do you accept?

I will be waiting to read from you soon..

Best Regards
Celso dos Santos

Dear seller;

I didn't contact the shipping company yet because I usually send somebody to see the car and evaluate it to me, then I send the money to them And they pay you, I never pay before someone I trust tell me how it is. I hope you understand because lost some money in past.
May my trust man go to that address to inspect the car to me and talk to you?

Best regards
Celso dos Santos

I am still waiting to read from you, are you still interested in the car, and if you didn't want to deal with the shipping company, you can send money to me directly, that is not a problem.

Thanks.

Dear seller

I usually don't do this kind of business by this way, I or someone I trust must see and confirm that is ok, then I can pay and until now you didn't send the address where he can see the car. If I don't be sure this is a save business we have no business.

Regards
Celso dos Santos



And wasn,t just this guy I talked to something like 10 peoples and all they coming from this site was sound a scam.

Welcome to Scamwarners labirintomauro.

Your English is fine and I can understand you perfectly. I agree that this looks very suspicious and you are very sensible to insist on seeing the car before paying any money. Most UK and US car sale sites are filled with fraudulent adverts and a seller is stupid if he isn't prepared to allow a buyer to see the car. If he won't let you inspect the car it is most likely that you haven't lost a bargain, you have avoided losing your money.

If the car is in Cyprus why is he advertising it for sale in Dubai and does he mention this in the original advert ? Of course the car is usually such a bargain there is a risk you'll rush in to a deal. Usually the money will go in to the bank account of a 'money mule' who passes on the money to him and if he hasn't got any in Cyprus, I'm sure that he has them in the UK which I regret to say is a centre for criminal payments like this. Once you've made payment there is no hope that you'll get your money back.

I'm happy to hear that you avoided getting scammed and it's nice to know where else these criminals are operating, though it's very likely that they're based in the UK.

CAR ADVERTS - If a car seller mentions escrow - he's scamming you Never ever for any reason pay anything until you have seen and inspected the vehicle
