Another Ebay Scam

[tdiplc]

This is a scam:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie..._Pr4_PcY_BIN_IT

The picture was nicked from our web site. The engine and car were built at TDi. I have spoken to our customer who is still using them so they are not for sale and he knows nothing about the auction.

I hope none of you have bid on this :o

Can't anything be done about this Mark, to try and protect others.

Shame people will stoop to this level, his spelling is not much to be thought of either

Thanks for heads up

Does look a cracker of an engine though

[Adie]

Another scam with terrible spelling :duh: Also says that he'll only post to US and wont post to UK

[Steve ( West Mids )]

says he is in Redditch, but US bidders only ?

[norkep]

But on his Postage Description -

Postage Cost Services Available Available to

£60.00 Seller's Standard Rate United Kingdom only

Will post to United Kingdom, United States, Canada.

Strange person indeed, would get me thinking straight away, maybe he thinks no-one in the US would complain

You could be right mate, or it could be that he thinks it is less likely that a US citizen will go looking for him ;)

eBay should clamp down on w :tsktsk: s like that. Sadly or though hopefully people don't, but can quite easily get ripped off.

They DO....but only if you tell them! There was a LS 430 done this way similarly too.

"The seller ended this listing early because the item was lost or broken."

[Monster-Mat]
