Potential buyer wants a report from yourautoreports.com

[probably chalk]

All

I have a car advertised on PH and on Autotrader. A potential buyer has been in touch wanting a report from yourautoreports.com
I've sold several cars privately over the years but none since 2021 and both PH and Autotrader advise against paying for searches requested by potential buyers due to the risk that the search company is potentially a scam set up by scammers pretending to be buyers.

Any experience of yourautoreports com?

Thank you

Scam. They own the website. They have no interest in buying your car.

SCAM

yourautoreports com

youtautoreports.com

Hopefully that will help this show up on search engines

But they do have very much interest in your card details.....

scam for your credit card details.

for some reason only scammers respond to PH classifieds......

Other example scam report requests include:

vehiclebestbuy.com
theinspectfleet.com
elitecarfax.com?
vinrecodes.com/public/ukvin
yourautoreports.com

I've just had the same scam happen this afternoon. The guy sounds quite genuine but there were little things that I got suspicious about. They also told me they were relatively local and even gave me a rough location to where they were travelling from. He asked me whether I'd had an inspection done from Yourautoreports.com and I nearly clicked on it. So I Googled it and found this very helpful page. Thank Google for finding this and thank you guys for starting this thread!
I sent this loser on their way.
