Trying to sell my vehicle and I have had 5 emails, all scams !

Very frustrating. All seem to run the same theme, overseas buyer or the seemingly obvious paypal scam.

Never used to be this bad, I've sold many many cars/bikes over the years then all of a sudden I put my vehicle up for sale and get inundated with all these scam emails!

I can supply IP address for those of you wanting to make their lives 'difficult' :innocent:

That is quite ridiculous, you hear of the odd one at times but all the enquiries is odd. Through trademe i assume?

One through trademe, the others through trade-exchange.

Never had this before, very annoying!

That first one appears to be a telstra clear connection here in NZ, so you may want to contact them to follow up. Locally, something can potentially be done about it. Second one seems to be Australian...
