A worrying new tactic by Autotrader UK scammers.
This is the advert in which the fraudulent link appeared

I've had to split it into two parts and the bogus link appears in the second screen print and I have underlined it in red to make it clear

The risk being that any car dealer with such a link on their pages may have all their sales intercepted by scammers.
