Just another scam for you to read from Gumtree

georgen · DTR Senior Member

This kind being going at least 18 month, my mate nearly got bitten over a vw camper, and the only reason he didn't is because he had no pay-pall so handed me 5 grand in cash and ask me to pay for it, a few e-mails back and forth and the game was up, said she worked in north-east but lived in Scotland, I offered to view vehicle at either locations lol. I gave him his money back next day and told him to stop being so stupid and stop looking for a bargain on eBay.

scams like this been around years and many more like them .. I bet there are lots that fall fo such scams

www.scamwarners.com/forum/viewtopic.php

there are tons of other such scams like this I have also seen the same thing for boats and bikes and in most cases asking for a deposit prior to delivery or saying some one else is intrested but if you pay a deposit first then they will hold the item for you .

same on facebook with puppys they say the one you want or see in pic that some one else wants it also but a deposit will secure it for you only .

Hello Stuart,

The car is already at the shipping company. The shipping is free because i supposed to ship the car to another buyer, then he told me that he don't have money to pay for it. He already paid the shipping charges.
I have a contract with eBay so this deal must go through them. I'm very busy with my job ( I'm a surgeon ) so I can't meet in person with you so this is the reason why I chose to sell my car over the Internet. According with the eBay you have 3 days from the time you receive the car to inspect it and decide if you want to keep it or not.
Here is how it will work:
1. First of all I will need the following details from you:
-Full name and shipping address.
2. After I will receive the details from you, I will forward them to eBay.
3. After they will process your info, they will send us both more informations about how we can complete this transaction. They will contact you regarding the shipping process and the arrival time.
4. eBay will start the shipping process and it will take up to 48 hours for you to receive the car. After you receive the car you will have 3 days to test, verify and do whatever you need to the car. If you will buy, then I will receive the payment through PayPal.
5. If you decide not to buy the car, then eBay will ship the car back to me (and you won't be charged for this). If you wish to make the transaction, please send me the necessary info so that we can proceed. I look forward to hear from you.

Kind regards,
Dr Sofia Wallace

Thank you for the reply. Is the car advertised on eBay.

With car being in Exeter I would obviously need to see it in Edinburgh as soon as possible. If it is everything as described I would be certain I would buy the car.

Please explain to me the shipping scenario as surely you would want it shipped to your own address prior to viewing. And then I could have a good look of the car to finalise the deal in Edinburgh. I would then be more than happy to do the transaction through paypal as you have stated . Do you have a number I could contact you on.

Regards

Stuart

Hi Stuart,

Thank you for your interest in my Ford Fiesta 1.4 TDCi 2009 38,964 miles, 10 months MOT, Taxed till 31/08/14, Full Service History,1 previous owner.All documents in original folders. 2 key fobs.The car is in perfect condition, no accidents, no damage, scratches or dents. HPI clear and fully paid
I am selling it at £2,350 because I've just finished the divorce and I am very glad that I took it, because it was my ex husbands most precious thing. He cheated on me although we have 2 kids together, anyway I don't wish to bore you with my life's story...
I don't ask to much for it because I just want to get rid of it ASAP, just want to erase a bad memory and I should get rid of it.
The car is in Exeter because I live here.As you can see from the pictures my car is in perfect condition.
From the beginning you have to know that for the payment I request only secure pay. I prefer the payment to be done using....eBay services (I will receive the payment only after you receive and inspect the car and only if you agree to buy it). I will pay for shipping and handling (my ex buyer did not received his loan but he already paid for shipping) so there won't be any additional shipping costs for you.

If you are interested in buying it please provide me your full name, address and phone no for shipping so I can initiate the deal through eBay. I will wait your answer (if you are interested to buy) very soon.

Kind regards,
Dr Sofia Wallace

Little harsh. There are little English speaking doctors becuase it's incredibly hard to become one and the majority of youths today are too damn lazy and bone idle to even attempt beconong a doctor. Don't knock foreigners for being hard working all their life then taking well paid jobs like doctors and dentists. They have worked damn hsrd to get there and really we should look at ourselves. I take my hat off to them. Even though it winds me up it's the truth. I know I couldn't become a doctor.

As someone with Polish blood and relatives, think you're incorrect. I have a doctor in the family, he couldn't pass his studies in the UK, so went to Poland to do them, passed no problems. A lot easier in their native countries to become doctors...
