A very nice Eldorado for sale on eBay. But is it kosher? The seller also lists many cars and boats and I don't know why but I'm suspicious. |

No it’s not genuine.
The same crook has been posting on Fleabay for a couple of years having hacked other peoples accounts and I’ve given up reporting, I must have done so well over 100 times. I’m reluctant to say on a public forum what his weak point is, but even though he changes style a lot he always leaves the same telltale. Happy to share by private message though. There are also several other obvious hints such as selling for a friend, email me direct etc

I’ve reported loads of these, for what difference it makes!
Same format, odd starting price, 2nd image is the page with email address request and a buy it now too good to be true. Location - ‘at UK’. ‘Selling for a friend’, ‘thank you for understanding etc’. Loads of listings in the same format from the same seller. I find it really annoying that eBay can’t stop this before they’re even listed. It’s been going on for years. I even get them sent as listings that might interest me from eBay itself! |

It's gone butwill have been a scam.. These scumbags are a real nuisance, cluttering up Ebay with their bogus "sales". It takes a minute or two but I always report them and send a brief email to the account owner to tell them they've been hacked... Cheers, Adrian Bristol UK

If it looks to be too good to be true then it probably is. Simples.

I know it won't make any difference, but I reported it and three other Fake Guzzi adverts.
I have reported them many times before. But they keep coming back.

Reported a few yesterday they went quick time easy to spot
1) Stupidly low price 2) Second pic has e-mail address a buy it now price and notes not to bid or contact via e-bay 3) Meet seller with cash ...yeah right 4) No seller details at all 5) Selling for a friend/seller abroad 6) many other adverts all pics at different locations Report to e-bay as "Avoiding fees THAT gets their attention Pretty obvious IF you turned up at the location given with cash you are likely to loose your cash quick smart I even sent a report to local Police ...one time maybe these scammers will be met either by a Police sting OR a bunch of bikers .... ready for the scum ...but I doubt it |
