It's funny but my mates parents picked up a td42 turbo gu for $16500 only 6 months ago.. 120xxx onnthe clock.
Was some old couple who had done there trips in it.. Didn't realise it's true value or cot confused which engine it had..

Maybe I'm a bit slow, but I don't understand what the point of those scams are.......
Surely if you're buying a car, it either exists or it doesn't and when you go pick it up and pay, if it ain't there then it was a scam...... LOL

A common scam would be that the seller "is overseas" and unable for you to visit. They then ask for a small fee for the car to be delivered to you for an inspection say $500.

If you do not like the car ill simply refund you the $500 before i get the car sent back to my house. how can you loose!

Put the car for sale, get dozens of enquiries and if 4 or 5 people fall for it then easy money.

There's many other ways but that's a common one.
