Basically, they want you to pay in advance and deliver the goods without you even seeing the camper. Will you ever see it? Nope, not a chance.
Who would fall for this anyway? Well, a lot of people. The camper is about £5k too cheap for starters. A similar one on ebay is currently advertised for £10.5k. They are using the cover story of it needing to be sold before a 6 month deployment in Afghanistan.
Anyway, thought i would give people the heads up. :thumbup:

How does the scam alert website identify the scams daily?

Theres a guy who does alot of this on gumtree as well, I played with him for a bit pretending to be very interested. He sent me a link to a fake Ebay feedback page.
I reported him to gumtree and they didn't seem that bothered at all, the advert was still up a few weeks later
These type of scams are pretty well documented and the goods are always way under market value. Avoid at all cost!!
