#1 Too good to be true?

Post by dereksharpuk » Wed Aug 29, 2018 7:53 am

I recently put my lovely E Type up for sale, a red Series 2 Roadster DAD690G on PistonHeads, & Classic Cars for Sale. I almost immediately got the offer of the asking price from a Matthew Fisher, fishingmatt62@gmail,com. He wanted a Bill of Sale even before purchase! Anyone shed light on this 'buyer' or seen my car for sale elsewhere?

On sale here http://www.autostorico.co.uk/cars-for-s ... adster-rhd quite common now to get offers of the full amount saying they will send you a cheque and when its cleared they will collect car....once you agree they start to hassle you to collect the car early.....you see the cheque as funds in your account after you pay it in so think its cleared......and release the car....unfortunatly in th UK cheques can be pulled back out of your account...think they have up to 7 days to do this....just another scam.....
