Suggestion
The worst of it is that scammers are able to hijack legit users of ebay, and use their accounts- my brother ended up with someone contacting him to ask how he wanted payment for something he'd not sold, but the chap had apparently bought from my brother.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

5 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 2Original post

These things are quite often a scam - there are too many suspiciously cheap cars on eBay and Autotrader. Either that, or it's a repaired insurance write-off. That's my guess anyway.

POST 3Original post

The worst of it is that scammers are able to hijack legit users of ebay, and use their accounts- my brother ended up with someone contacting him to ask how he wanted payment for something he'd not sold, but the chap had apparently bought from my brother. Ebay were notified.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have seen a few myself over the months, however normally the seller is newly registered but this ebay member has been registered for a few years... What they haven't posted are the "after pictures" when it was burried into a tree or something! *runs away in the opposite direction* David

POST 5Original post

I thought I'd seen that one on eBay before. I think this is the original advert seen on 03/01/08 http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220188474622 Sad I know but I have a search that mails me any new auctions for 911 over £20k there's always a few every day. The one you found is almost certainly a rip off with a hijacked account and a copied item.
