Blatant scam Cutch lol

 

thats got to be a typo with the price.....

 

yep its mine, now if you send me a cheque, ill ship it to your door, thanks

 

if it is genuine they left a 1 off the asking price as the queue would be round the block for £3k

 

Deffo a scam

 

I would say that is genuine but with a digit missing in the price. Seem a lot of detail listed to be a scam.

 

because its copied and pasted from an advert thats old or somewhere else

here the legit ad

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FORD-ESCOR...-/170702247991

 

Lol fair enough.

 

it was on ebay a few weeks back £12000

 

thought so! wasnt sure if there was a catch, ie broken!

 

if u post ur bankers draft to uganda u will recieve the car in 6-8 weeks

 

Look at what i just received!!


Hi Steven,

This FORD ESCORT MK2 2.0 COSWORTH ~ FULLY REBUILT FROM BARE SHELL ~ ROAD LEGAL & FAST is in excellent condition with no issues. I'm asking £2890 for a fast sale. The car is currently located in Aberdeen (delivery can be arranged anywhere in uk) because I just finished the divorce with my wife and I have moved here. I will sell the car only using Google Checkout's services, this way you'll get 3 days to inspect the vehicle before paying me and I'll be sure that I have a genuine buyer that isn't going to mess me around. Where are you located? Please email me as soon as you see this message because I have few other people interested in this car.

Regards,
James
PS What's your email address?

 

love it how the ad was in surrey, london but in the reply he says its in aberdeen now! about as far away as possible probably thinking i am close to london. as luck would have it i am going to aberdeen tomorrow to meet a mate. Said i can come seee it in the morning whats his number so i can arrange details. wonder if i will get a reply!

 

I have to go to aberdeen on friday for work fit medical so got all day to kill, might go ave a look.

 

Cant see why people think its a scam? I mean... lovely detailed advert. Must be true yes?

I mean yes its on Scumtree and its £20,000 too cheap... but where do I send the cheque?

honestly! just lol

 

Easy to clarify, just tell him your brother lives in Aberdeen and he wants to come and view it, ask for his address, I bet you don't get a reply. Not all cheap ads are scams but you can usually spot them a mile off, I missed out on a 4x4 cossie a month ago that was sold for 600 quid complete, had been in a garage for years.

 

I'm in Aberdeen the now waiting for phone call that I don't think will happen!
