Look what I've got
Yep, got that one to. Forward it to spoof@ebay.co.uk so that they can add it to their list.

Yes, first thing I did. And just checked the Electoral roll for 51 Station Crescent. I wonder if Mr Sam Jama is part of this?

They are both Classifieds, so you cant bid can you?!
No. They're obviously wise to the 'Bid Bombardment' tactic! :(
And the second one, by the way the pics have been taken looks like its at a MINI dealer.
EDIT : which it is - on MINI Cherished :)

With them its probably just a low price to get someone to go and look at the car, or a typo!
It's highly unlikely any dealer would advertise a car in this way, as there is clearly no way they can sell the car for this price. I'm sure MINI and/or Trading Standards would have something to say about it!
Thought as much, alot of the Classifieds on there are MINI Dealers..
Surely when they do there is something in the listing to say it's a dealer?

Heres a couple more examples of dealers ads...

And your right they do have the dealers details. Its a bit strange then that the other one says "WHEN YOU TRY TO CONTACT ME THROUGH '' Email the seller '' OPTION, PLEASE UNMARK '' Hide my email address'' BECAUSE I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO E-MAIL YOU BACK. THIS OPTION IS DOWN THE LEFT SIDE OF THE SCREEN" ?!

And also this is for sale by the same seller?!

The Convertible is my old dealership! :p

(Not really relevant to the topic, but I thought it was quite cool)

Lol, of all the ones on there and I go and choose that one :D

I've also got one. The con artist is getting desperate now! :)

E-bay has confirmed to me what we all knew.

I have asked Karl why he is not asking me to send money to e-bay rather than Mr Lukacs. Am looking forward to his reply

I feel a liitle snubbed by the fool. I did after all bid up to 8000 for the (picture of a) car!!
I didn't get an offer to purchase it.

This is a great read, I love the fact the pencil d??k has kept running with his story.

I recommend you guys check out the following article, it's a great read!

Thats a top article. Wouldn't you just love to meet one of those guys and run their hands through a mincer.;)

Yes, great entertainment. It would be nice to emulate that performance with an e-bay scammer. I think I shall need a few to practice on.

They bought a phone off a workmate of mine! UK resident....but wanted it posted to their son in Nigeria on "holiday"........:rolleyes:

I asked my mate to send him a box full of dog Turds! :p ............but he wouldn't do it:rolleyes: :(

The con artist has now sent me links to pictures of the mini.

Have a look at his other pictures. Anyone want to buy a motorhome? :smile:

With all those other pictures and the way they are taken, reckon he's done it before?! :eek: :rolleyes: Fool!

Looks like he is a serial scammer and that is his "stock".

I guess every so often someone falls for it and pops something into his Hungarian bank account
