Sure the PH massive can help with this. Ad for an MGB, looked too good but responded anyway.
Got directed to pay via MDR Transport. Anyone any info on this at all?
Seems an obvious scam.

Thanks for any input.

Definite scam, I take it the owner of the vehicle has gone to work in Italy or some where similar and left the vehicle in the care of this transport firm.

^^This^^

It's incredibly easy to rip off a transport company's website to try and make it all look legit. Have a look at this thread.

Also, always check the header of any e-mail you receive.
Then use - https://who.is/ - to find out the domain host name and the registrant's details.

OP, you might want to inform MDR that they are being unwittingly used to further this scam.

If you're going to invest any time in bothering to reply, you could get some ideas from the link I posted.
Or else pick up some tips from scambaiting sites.

For those who are contemplating an e-bay bargain motor, check to see if it has featured on here.
