anyone that spells cheque... check, is dodgy..

ask for his number to discuss... doubt your'll get a reply. Im very cautious of everything, so IMO scam

 

Yup, completely. Had literally 50 of these when I was selling my Oldsmobile V8...

 

With a name like LARRY it must be a GAY SCAM.

 

cheers guys , what is the point of it...... is it just to get personel details

 

scam m8 110% best bet take the cheque of 10.000 that his gona send you and just hang on to it

 

Sounds like the typical dodgy cheque/ bankers draft scam where you cash the cheque wait for it to clear then refund the "excess payment" only to find the cheque bounces a few weeks later and you are out of pocket and the criminal has just made some money and had your car.

I still don't understand how a bank can "clear" the funds with a dodgy cheque or draft and then take the money back off you. You would think that the banks security measure are such that the cheque would bounce and if not then it is a failing of the banks security measures and hence you should not be liable.

 

Was thinling of giving him address etc of
mr t*sser, waste of time ave, cloud 9 , pluto. then give a premium rate sex line number.........

 

cozzed you do get sent a cheque but 5 times more like 10.000/£20.000 you give him his £17.000 you keep your £3000 for your car plus you keep the car probably but also have the police at your door to arrest you for fraud and get sent to jail

 

holy s**t , just ignore then

 

u need to ask

 

scam, delete thier bids and block them

 

i'd go for it.
