that's what i told my mate, asked for a contact number, but doubt ill get one

nothing wrong with the ad itself that I can see, but seller is a new user with 0 feedback which always rings alarm bells and so does the stupidly cheap price.

If it was up for 8995 they would get more enquiries I suspect!


I would imagine if you go to buy it they will meet you somewhere, beat you to death and take your money.

Fil

you will get the old, the cars abroad, but to much to register, ill ship it to uk ! etc etc

fair enough

seems pointless to place an ad like that

Chip

iTrader: (3)

It states its taxed and it shows UK plates, so anyone who still thinks its a genuine ad after being told its abroad and needs registering deserves to be parted from their cash

Fil

chip, if you replyed that, all you'd get back would be they are before i left uk blah blah.... still taxed etc

Chip

Or they just wouldnt reply at all and would move onto the next sucker.

Sadly as long as stupid people keep handing over their cash, the scammers (and ebay of course!) will keep making money from it.

I have sent them an email about it.

I entered my name as

Firstname: Potential
Surname: Victim

Fil

im safe



due to fact i aint got £5k






and i wouldnt by a honda civic

BigMouthBillyBass

i smell a scam, or possibly scamola.... again

Paulo P

Exactly. Any classified advert where the seller has 0 feedback needs to be avoided. the car is worth double that price.

ProjectBobcat

if i was so inclined to scam people id price it about 1k too cheap, halving the price is just way too obvious. stupid c*nts.

Mate when looking for a car on ebay you will see loads of those scams. If they are too cheap it will be a scam. They generally rip other peoples adverts etc from different sites.

Oh and the person has ALWAYS got 0 feedback.

How much he looking to pay for Type R? year/mileage etc?

peteh

iTrader: (3)

Rhys

I want to take the opportunity to assure you that this deal is 100% legitimate, the financial part of this deal will be managed by eBay, in this way both of us will be protected. I will make all the documents from here on your name and address, they will be signed and legalized and when you will get them you will only have to put your signature on.

If you want to complete the purchase please send me your ebay ID, your full name and address and I will notify ebaythat you are selected as my buyer. After I get in touch with them they will contact you to explain the entire procedure.
