got an escort si for sale on autotrader, got 2 e mails this morning from people trying to buy it abroad, offering shipment and payment by cheque, one from greece and one from france!!! i have seen people post things like this on the cars for sale section in here, is there lots of people doing scams with this abroad... copy of the e mails:

e mail addresses are there if you fancy bombarding them with e mails

i have already e mailed them saying cash on collection only, i will mail autotrader, also told autodata to F**K OFF last night as they keep one ringing me, you ring them back and they say im ringing about the car cheeky c***s, then try and ask for Ł80 to advertise, i expressed clearly that the advert states no canvassers or telesales, i dont know how this company has been going for so long!!!!
