Scam - 31st Mar 2008 7:58pm
I have put my car on ebay, autotrader and pistonheads and have found only ebay to be effective so far, but i got the following email from autotrader.
Obviously i know this is a scam (as i got the exaact same email twice from 2 different people). I assume it is identity theft or something, can i wind this guy up or anything? any one got ideas? Plus someone does answer the mobile, sounds indian
