Hi,

 

Just joined as a member and I've been reading some alarming posts about a supra scam on ebay! The guy seem to be using the details from the ebay supra that I bought back in the end of November 04. Sounds as if he robbed the description from the ebay auction too!

 

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=18290&item=4504354501

 

The reason the reg mentioned above checks out as it does is because the guy I bought it off had transferred his plate off the Supra onto a MR2 Ferrari Replica which he bought hence reason for the Supra sale, I know which car I rather have lol.

 

Very strange reading that the car on my drive was for sale as a scam! Just checked the camera to make sure it's hasn't pegged it to Italy :)

 

Hope this sheds some light on things for you guys.

 

Burna.

Dear L Jacobs (dunk657),

 

The following is a notice from eBay Trust & Safety regarding:

 

Item Number - 4529239154

Item Title - 1997 Toyota Supra / Great Car / Great Condition

 

Our records show that you placed a bid on this item. We removed this item from the Site and cancelled your bid because it appears that the seller's account has been compromised and used by an unauthorized third party. The seller's privileges to trade on eBay may be temporarily suspended while we investigate this matter further. Due to privacy concerns we will not be able to share further details related to this seller.

 

If someone claiming to be the seller asks you to complete a transaction outside of eBay, we strongly recommend that you ignore the request. Transactions for items listed on eBay that are completed outside of the eBay marketplace are not covered by the Buyer Protection services offered by eBay and can be highly indicative of fraud.

 

If you have already paid, you may wish to pursue recuperating your funds. Some steps you might take include:

 

1. Ask the seller for a refund

2. If you paid by check, ask your bank to stop payment 3. If you paid by credit card, contact your credit card company’s security department 4.

Oh well, we all knew it was a scam. Shame though, it would've been a great car.
