    Blah Scammers

    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'

    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...
