Too good to be true

Which one? there's 50 of them.....lol
This one..
http://www.carsales.com.au/private/d.../?Cr=1&sdmvc=1
GU4 with a 4.2 for $15k, no numberplate shown in pics and a shitty description.. Scam for sure!
I wish is was for real then I could get my 4.2 for 15K with 75000km score !!!! lol
Probably was a right off or something if the price is right. Hence the no roady, probably can't get one.
I'm thinking big time scam 7500k's a year for the last 10 years mmmm
Who's got a carsales account, one phone call to the seller will answer all questions.
I'll take three. Lol
Yeah so he has it as a GUIII from 2003 yet its a GUIV which started late 2004.
Only got as far as the title.
Didn't even bother with the call just googled the number and it came up with some other dodgy adds, scammer for sure!Quote:

Clean as a whistle..
So they still are coming up..
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.Quote:

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.
you sound like an expert... how many people have you taken for a ride then hey? =PQuote:
