Attention there is a SCAM on the net, someone that try to sell car, bike or boat.
Few days ago I was surfing on net for used car web sites and I found a very interesting advert,
http://www.mudah.my/...ere-4349036.htm
http://www.carlist.m...gs.php?id=80301
the car was nice and the price good, too good.....but I decided to contact the owner for info, and this is the answer:
Hello,
First of all thank you for your interest in my car. The total cost of the car is RM 54000. The car is in perfect condition, no damage, never been involved in any accidents, has always been garage kept. It is still registered in Malaysia but now the car is in Italy with me. The reason that the car is in Italy is because I worked in Malaysia as a consultant inspector for the Department of Health for a few years in exchange of experience and now I am back at my home from Italy . If you are still interested please e-mail and and I will get back to you with more details.
Thank you !
all this sounded strange to me, so I went on internet looking for similar email and I found out many cases like this, it is just a Scam. I presume that this fellows are based in the States as many there already got trapped and now they are trying to fish also in other countries.
So for all of you, if the car is too nice and price too good......please keep open eyes and if you can forward this post as much as possible to all your friends. Tq
