So I get a message from an ebay user that he just saw the car I sold last week on ebay on autotrader.ca. It appears they used my pictures and even copy from my auction. I have emailed auto trader to have the ad removed. What the F#$$k.

There is no contact info, the only thing I can think is that someone who is pissed about me not selling the car to him is trying F$%^k with me, but why and for what result. Also who cares, the car is sold and still in my garage anyway. Or could this just be a mistake, but if so how the hell does that happen?

whoever posted it is possibly trying to scam people. Get them to send him a deposit on it, and then give them your contact info or something...

 

I think it's just a coincidence. It's likely an identical car in a small African country owned by a prince who is looking to remove a large sum of money and have it taken abroad by a risk-taking entrepreneur who is willing to share this fortune with the prince....simple, bona fide plan, really

 

Yeah, often other ppl use you pic to sell their car, or it's just a scam...........

 

It's got a be a scam, but there in no contact info. They also pulled the copy from my ad. Waiting for auto trader to get back to me.

 

I've noticed alot of this kind of stuff on there lately. Its certainly a buyer beware type situtation.

 

Auto trader has said that it looks like a case of someone trying to scam people, they are deleting the ad now. They were very nice about, I take this is not the first time they have seen this type of thing.

Beware!

 

Yeah, saw like tons of black FD for sale last month or something, and it's just $4,500 or something, for a LHD FD...... same as Toyota Supra, tons of the same supra there, no contact info, just 1 photo or something, selling for so cheap!!!

 

The scam is to put what seems an outrageously good deal up, pretending to be someone who doesn't know the worth of their car, and then get people anxious to take advantage of the smoking deal to pay, or put up a large deposit to hold it. So yeah, a lot like that African prince/ Nigerian government official/banker, and so on.
