Rant:Scam adverts where cars are priced too cheap with email contact

You see it on PH, Autotrader etc.
Who falls for these?

The adverts are obvious too as they usually have email contact on each picture and the cars are generally newer but priced alot lower

We did this last week. They are deliberately designed so that the ONLY people who fall for them are the most gullible.

I suspect a lot of people in the UK fall for them.

They used to occur here on Pistonheads too. Not sure if they still do. I gave up reporting them in the end....

I've lost count of the times that I've reported the same car to PH. It gets boring in the end.
