Autotrader UK - Scam Adverts

[TerranceBoyce]

Under no circumstance and for any reason should you EVER make any payment before viewing and inspecting ANY vehicle you intend to buy.

The scammer has no vehicle and he can't scam you if you insist on viewing the vehicle first.

Paying in to a bank account provides no protection whatsoever. If you've paid a 'money mule' no one will refund your stolen money.

Just a few examples.

Slight variation on the 'Vigo' scam here. These are coming back from Gmail addresses at the moment.

Hello,

Thank you for your interest.Please let me explain why am selling the car
and why is so cheap. I must tell you is a little bit complicated.Recently i
had to move in Vigo, Spain together with my family and i took the car with
me, but i realized is very difficult to drive it here and also is quite
expensive to register it here. So i took the decision to sell it back to UK
due the fact is already registered there and is a right hand drive. Is much
easier for me.But to succeed in selling it i had to drop my price to a
really attractive one so that's why it is £ {price} including delivery to your
home address and full insurance during shipping.
{make and model} {mileage} Miles in showroom condition, no
scratches, no dents, accident-free.
Please let me know if you're interested so I can provide you with further
details.

Kind Regards,

If you hadn't guessed, if you come across any car seller using the domain - betcrown.co.uk - run a mile.

If you plan to use ANY online ad site, do your homework beforehand, otherwise you risk losing a lot of money.
