Hi there,

Just got an email from ADVFN with the Pistonheads logo and the Autotrader logo, advertising a training seminar to make £5000 a month in the used car market!!

Is this something genuine and endorsed by PH?

Going to go No. But i was under the impression ADVFN were a reputable website?

I might have been missing out on a gold mine here wink

Is the answer 'have £10,000 worth of used cars'?

It is not from advfn (or whatever).
They will have spoofed the 'from' email address.

Chances are there is a link somewhere in the email, and they are hoping you will click the link rather than reply.
The link will go to fake page to steal your details.

It is, of course, a scam. Be careful out there, folks.
