Default Autotrader Scam

Hi All,

I've just had an email from these scam artists too. They were advertising a nice car on Autotrader and it looked far too good to be true. Thank Google for site like these!

Stay safe out there!
Lee.

Hello,
I regret the delay of my response.
I already have many emails so I hope you'll understand that I need to sort them.
My name is Joanne Parker I have 31 years old and I was doctor for 3 years in Leeds. I am glad you are

interested in my car 2004 54 Audi A4 1.9 Tdi 130 Sport.
First, I want you to know that I lived in Leeds until 2 months ago, but now I'm in Greece because I am

pregnant and I have decided to give birth in my home country so I want to sell my car and move back in Greece.

The car is in perfect working condition. It's in showroom condition, no scratches, no dents, full service

history, HPI clear, no outstanding finance, non-smoking, never involved in any accident and it has 60000

miles.
The car is still UK registered and now it is locked in my garage. If you dicide to buy it you will receive the

original invoice, logbook, keys and all the documents to register it into your name .
Genuine reason for sale: unfortunately I can't register the car here because you know it is very hard to drive

a Right-hand car here.

I want 3000 GBP + shipping to your door for the car. To calculate the shipping fees send me your address.

Due to amount involved and due the fact that I am not located in the United Kingdom, I only accept third party

transaction mediator.
I have chosen the eBay Shipping Center Program to take care of all the proceedings, so the car will be shipped

by eBay.
Beside shipping the car, eBay will act as the middle man - holding the payment until you receive and inspect

it. You will have one week inspection period.

Regarding the payment method I would like to use eBay like a third part for the payment because in my opinion

this is the safest way to handle the transaction. You will have the car for inspection and test drive BEFORE

any money is released to me.

Look how this work:
1. I will contact them , and I will send your shipping information to eBay to open the transaction.
2. They will send you a payment invoice for the car (the invoice will be from customer support team) about

how to make the payment.
3. The invoice contains all the info about this transaction and you must follow the steps written there to

complete the deal with me.
4. After all that will be done, the car will be shipped by eBay, and the car will arrive at your address in

3 to 5 days..
5. Buyer accepts delivery and informs eBay to tell them if he is satisfied or not
6. Ebay will release the money to the seller(in case the buyer is satisfied) or to the buyer(in case that

he is not satisfied)..
This means a 3rd party.
You will receive a tracking # in the same day when the car will be shipped from eBay.

I am using the protection and shipping program offered by eBay Shipping Center because this will protect both

of us and also it is the fastest way to complete this deal.
If you want to go on with this deal , mail me immediately your shipping address to contact ebay and calculate

the shipping cost .

Here are some pictures of the car:
