Question

As most people know - my landrover is for sale.
I have had an e-mail today, someone says they want to collect the landrover next weekend and that they will post a cheque to me now so that it clears in time.
I find this a bit strange as if i was going to buy a landrover i would want to come and have a good look at it first, and if i lived far away i would pay with cash if it was any good.
Im not saying that my landrover is not worth the money, but i just find it strange and wonder if there is something dodgy here.

Please let me know what you think before i send him my details.

Cheers,

Scott.

well i know i keep on about you trying to peddle yer 110 but this is a scam mate, just ignore it and you will be fine

Cheers for the reply yella - didn't think it sounded quite right.

Ive heard of these type of scams from bnog breaders.

Cheque first goods later, at the end of the day some one ended up with a free Dog.

If the guy has time to send you a cheque, then he has the time to get the funds from the bank and come see you with cash in his pocket. This sounds like the scams usually found on ebay. I wouldn't touch his cheque with the proverbial barge pole. Doesn't matter how much you want rid of your 110 give this one a very wide berth.. Rock

Does seem a bit dodgy. Why not get the cheque and take it to a branch of the originating bank and ask them to cash it or if there are enough funds in the account to cash it. It's a shame to loose a deal 'cos were all cynical bastards.

ffs grunter get real, no one and i mean no one of sane mind would agree to send you a cheque for something they haven't even seen, this is a great big SCAM!

Yeah but right no listen right..................................................erm......forgot what I was going to say.

dont touch the cheque with a barge pole it will appear to clear in your account then the bank will tell you its a fake and you will get stiffed for the money

nice one treev

I think that closes this thread!

I've remembered what I was going to say now.....................................................................................................................................................Erm no I havent.

Cheers,

I just cant believe the amount of e-mails i am receiving from people over seas - which are so obviously scams, I'm getting at least 5 a day!

I'm also getting calls from a company called car data, they tell me that for £45 they guarantee to sell my landrover for me by next Sunday if not i get a free weekend holiday and my money back.
Has anyone used these people before or is it just yet another scam.

Scott.

Sounds like another scam me ole mate - steer clear

Scam

send them an email saying if you sell my landy by next sunday, THEN i will give you the 45 quid.
