Jan-Autotrader.com - anyone heard of them?

[PompeyPaul]

Other half has a car for sale on Autotrader. Got a text from Jan-autorader.com giving an offer code, with the offer being described as non negotiable, valid for 24 hours and is £300 below our asking price.

This is the site link. Sounds too good to be true, so probably is! Can't find anything about them from a google search, and it is unranked on Alexa:

Anyone with any knowledge - info gratefully received!

Could this not be made into a sticky?

Loads of threads about this & if someone searches Google then it wont be long before the sticky directs people to Pistonheads & generates more site traffic.

Win for PH, win for someone who avoids getting scammed.

I'm not even going to bother checking the domain this time. Anything that has that 9a T&C relating to advance payment of a "refundable" inspection fee is a scam and will have been registered and set up within the last 2 or 3 days.

Needs to be added to the PH Fraud warning Sticky Wiki : http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a... except they aren't registering xxx-pistonheads.com YET.
