i advertised my mk4 in autotrader the other day, nothing special, 2000 plate 90000 miles some aftermarket wheels from previous owner. so i valued it at around £1600, within a day i had an african guy phone up wanting to buy it, full value without even seeing it, straight away this rang out scam!!!!!!!! he also lived in bristol and i live in london but he said he had a fried living close. i played along with his call, and said i could not let him view for afew days as was busy, anyway today he phoned again said hes mate had the money waiting, so i thought what the heck and said come down. i was fully on my guard and a mate was with me. the guy turned up and gave me cash without even lookin really. asked him what he was gonna do with the car and he said he ships them to africa for £1000, then sells them out there, says that car is worth between £10/£15k!!!!!!!!!! i said no way! he said defo!!!! thats english sterling!!!!
