I have advertised my car on here http://www.corsasport.co.uk/board/viewthread.php?tid=166719

today i recieved a strange email about it, The email is below:

Hello,
Am interested in this item but before getting this item i will like to know or asked some questions about this items and these are the major thing that i will like to know,
Why you wish to sell this items?
The present condition of this item?
Your last price for this item without shipping charges?
Can i view any pics of this items?
Your method of payment?
These are the major questions that i will like to know about this items before going further to purchase the item and have a good transaction with you.More so i will like you to be more sincere with me and transact with me,with UTMOST GOOD FAITH.
Hopefully to read from you asap.

Mr Leonard.


Seems a bit strange dont you think? I have heard about people getting emails like this before but the car is only advertised on Corsasport at the moment so someone on here must have sent it?

Not sure?

yeah someone is leeching the CS classifieds, so prying on the members

i reckon the classifieds should only be viewable to registered members so they can't do this no more!

a while ago someone gave me an email address of someone that does this. I replied basically telling them I wish to sell my car to them.(which i didn't)

They replied staright away with what I had to do.

I then basically told them I was a member of a fraud squad and that I will be investigating matters further and made out that I had traced them down.

I never received anything after that. But it was still funny
