That's a very common scam these days. The scammer copies the VIN and photos and other information from another online listing, "claims" that the car and/or he are overseas, and asks for an amount that's low enough that authorities won't bother investigating when the bilked victim reports it.

Just try to arrange to see the car in person and see what kind of excuses he comes up with.

well the car is a couple hours north of me, not overseas.. and my friend an i have seen this car posted for sale many times.. i might even take a ride up to see it this weekend

**nsxtasy** · 09-30-05, 04:35 PM

Uh huh... they just moved from England, where they could have sold the car for $30-50K, but they wanted to bring it here so they could sell it for $5K. Yeah, right.

You've seen this car posted for sale many times. Let me guess - you've seen it posted for sale at typical NSX prices (like $25-50K, or whatever). For sale by someone other than this guy who claims he is selling it for $5K. Sounds like you've seen the listings that the scammer copied the information from.

Wanna bet that if you contact the guy who claims he is selling it, he cannot make arrangements for you to look at it? Go ahead and see if you can arrange to see it by contacting the scammer who says he is selling it for $5K, and let us know what happens.

i saw the car for sale 3 times, once for 6k, 5.5k, and 5k.. he said he was open this weekend if i wanted to come up and see the car..

im not trying to argue with you, i agree that this is probaly a scam.. i just want to see where this goes lol

Let us know if its the real deal! 5 grand, i mean you would have to be stupid to pass a deal up like that!

**nsxtasy** · 12-15-05, 05:23 PM

Funny how it's been over two months since he made that claim, and doesn't come back saying how it was real and he bought it. Uh huh...

mybluelude · 01-07-06, 07:53 PM

DID YOU EVER FIND OUT ANYTHING? MY BANKER SAID NO PROBLEM ON THE MONEY! HE TOLD ME TO FIND THREE MORE JUST LIKE IT, AND HE WOULD GIVE THE MONEY FOR ALL THREE, SO I'M IN, IF IT'S REAL!

**nsxtasy** · 01-07-06, 09:35 PM
