I thought this email from a buyer seemed a bit sketchy: http://dub.dmt.bz/scammer.png

So I reversed their google+ profile image with tinyeye and got this:

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/australi...

She was later found raped and murdered, and this scammer is apparently using her image in order to try to steal cars.

Some people are sick beyond words :/

Just to clarify, is this utterly sick scammer on Pistonheads Classifieds or is this someone who has replied to one of your ads?

Replied to my ad, apologies if this is a common occurrence, just seemed a bit sick to me to be using the profile image of someone who was murdered. I guess scams like this are rife frown
