Scam...hmmm maybe

[Lee-Bmth]

So ive placed my Z on autotrader, and received a text message from a website called www.sales-autotrader.com with a unique purchase id number, i can enter into their site lol, offering me almost the full asking price, smells to me! Anyone heard of this before? Seems legit pmsl

[sjcdeans]

prob not a complete scam, just would imagine similar to we buy any car.

They look like they give u a decent price and shaft u later on, admin fee's, small scratches etc

[WhackyWill]

Put up the link to the car...lots of people on here wanting Zeds.

[Lee-Bmth]

Ah right , yeah sounds like ill walk away with 2k with these guys lol

 

Ah i would wack the link up, but I'm more of a reader on here than a poster,so don't have required post count. Good idea though :-)

More scammy than a scammy fox trying to scam a Nigerian

Sound like one of those commision firms to me.

I think Ricey seems to have summed it up.

You can always put a post with a link in the "Spotted on Ebay" forum (even though its on Autotrader)

[Lee-Bmth]

Ahhhhh ok cool. Good shout.

 

As for the scam, yep wide birth given :-) cheers all

Post the add fella, I'm after a Zed.

[Lee-Bmth]

Its done within the "spotted on ebay" but its auto-trader lol

I had a text from this website as well. Site looks pretty good so I was intrigued. Did a google search to see if it was legit but nothing came up

 

This was last week, just checked now again and a few people are talking about it. It's also on autotrader's security page
