Will sell to you for 2100 if you like the vehicle,and you can view anytime from Sunday 27th.....you would not be disappointed.


Cheque ok(crossed cheque preferable)............I would send transfer of ownership once it cleared. Look forward to hearing from you.

Dont give this nutter anything especially information and forward the message to the police. Cos its obwviously a scam and you will get ripped of very badly if you fall for it.
Reply:don't call them, don't respond to them and ignore it.





the guy can't even spell 'cheque' properly- this is a blatant scam.





Duck and cover and it will go away!
Reply:Fraud.
Reply:I would get on to the police immediately. Before you know it they will be buying your house too without your consent or you could quote them an exhobitant price for the car and see what the outcome is.
