[DeTomaso] Scam eBay auction for Pantera 4275

[Julian Kift]

eBay may be reluctant to immediately kill it as no VIN is listed to verify the actual vehicle for sale. Albeit underhanded sellers will often use generic photos to represent items for sale.


Also the seller has a 74 feedback, normally these scam artists have single digit feedback for a few low dollar purchases to build some credibility, maybe it is a hacked account too.

Steve L. spotted this eBay auction



http://www.ebay.com/itm/112316750098



and asked me about it.  Auction looks suspicious to us both.



Finding the car in the registry, I contacted the last known owner to verify,

as he recently bought it in December.  He says the advert is not his, and the car is not for sale.



Some people are bidding.   Ebay has been contacted about the scam, but have not yet killed the auction.



Hopefully anyone bidding is smart enough to use the registry, and learn the truth, and protect themselves.

Hate to have anyone scammed.



So I am posting this, for anyone not yet connected to the registry.
