what is it with Auto Trader Classics and the scams?

I look there every now and then and the last time I did I saw the same 66 Chevy II listed three times by 3 different sellers at the same time.

I guess not even the prince of nigeria is a honest guy anymore? lol.j/k


I alway deal/buy direct, if you dont have keys in your hand when buying a car then it not a real deal.
Though many of my buddys have sold thier cars to other states the buyer always is very willing to meet and look at the car... even if that means fly out to Cal.

I had that happen to me not long after (successfully) selling one of my cars on Ebay, someone replicated the whole listing.

Ebay actually responded and killed it very quickly, though this was ~5 yrs ago now, so the scam volume that they have to deal with is probably much higher, nowadays.

What a steal of a deal!

WOW! That takes some balls to list such a well known car like that one! Or serious lack of brain cells.
