Ideal for any Southern based member/speculator, quick trip on the shuffle and all the way to the bank :thumbs:

[cslsuperfan]

£990!!!!!!!!!

I suspect this is the wrong price....

Missed a 3 @ the start. :smokin:

[Chappers]

Well I'm having the conversation with him but currently "local pickup is not possible"

If it looks too good to be true...

sounds like it might be my old mate Winston Umbongo of the Ivory Coast :whistle:

[Chappers]

I genuinely hope someone hasn't been conned here, but the explanations weren't good enough for me.

The pictures sent were from here:
http://www.4roo.com/annonce-auto-377976.html - 2010

Advert and phone number from Paris, items located in Lyon, France. Postage included, paypal only.

I'm not a betting man, I'm afraid.

[Chappers]

That being said, f*cking niche scam if there ever was one!!!

[gingernuts]

Big gamble I know, will soon see if i get an old velvet french sofa turn up in the post.

[gingernuts]

Ahhh, borrocks haha. For the same price Im guessing? Like its been said, a pretty clever and niche scam if it is. Hopefully paypal will mean Ill be able to get it back.

[mistergav]

Just been told it's mine if I want it too. :banghead:

Ditto, waiting on the PayPal request :/

I need a new chez long anyway so Im in luck either way :)

Someone else fancy doing me a favour and responding to the add and also asking if they can view whilst they are in fance. If it still smells fishy Ill start trying a paypal resolution, if not ill wait till he says it will be delivered. Ive paid and hes still talking and says itll be sent recorded dhl with tracking numbers next week.

I already did that, said I was in Clermont at the end of next week and could pick them up on the way, he said collection isn't possible and then hasn't sent me any more mail.

That's scary probably nothing to collect then, I'm sure if you wanted to drop off your money then leave empty handed that would have been fine.

[gingernuts]

It appears the guy has removed the add as hes said he would when I paid, which could go either way. He also has other listings on there so not sure what to think now.

[Mike R]

Is he a verified Paypal person, as that needs all bank details etc to do so, which means he is traceable if all goes awry? If not, I think it is likely to be a scam....

[Chappers]

I imagine the plan was to get €1400 x many, close the account, let paypal deal with the fallout?

Hey maybe I'm just cynical though.

[shimmy]

Maybe Pierre Umbongo has a few of them?

[Chappers]

Does he make them in the congo?

[gingernuts]

Im now in a position where Ive sent him any email saying I have heard he has said to a few others they are still for sale. No reply. He has taken the add down (as I discussed with him) but left his others up. Im not sure whether to pull the plug now and start the resolution with paypal, or see it out in the hope that you lot arent trying to call my bluff so you can get them haha. No, really I dont know whether to give him a chance to A) email back and explain, or B)actually send them.

[knoxville]

Full interior for a grand, really? I wouldn't have even bothered contacting...

[gingernuts]

Just received this back. Not sure what to think!

Hi,

your PayPal payment is on hold for normal 24h verification. In this moment
we have stop all contact with other peoples. The advert has been removed
from website and we keep the interior for your company. As soon as payment
from PayPal is release ( must be done today) we cannot deal with some one
else. Maybe there are messages that has been sent earlyer, you have made
the payment so we will delivery it starting from next week.

Regards
Emmanuel

Usually these people steal photos from others - I searched google and can't find these photos on there. If he was scamming I don't think he would get back to you? Surely just ignore you and not explain himself.

I think give it a chance. If you don't receive anything paypal will always give you your money back as he would have to prove delivery. If you get an old sofa delivered then just hope it has some money stuffed down the back or refuse delivery :thumbs:

[gingernuts]

See thats what Im thinking. If I were him, Id have ceased contact as soon as the payment was through.

I posted a link with all the pictures in from 2010! http://www.4roo.com/annonce-auto-377976.html

Maybe he's going to just let it run on long enough that you can't claim back from Paypal...

[Chappers]

Also when did his name become Emmanuel? It was Jean on the email he sent to me? :bigcry:

[Clubber]

I think he will send you the stuff and they will be pretty much as described BUT they might be from a stolen car, if that's the case, this purchase might be tracked and the interior may be confiscated from you without any compensation. Ask for a receipt or bill of sale if possible to secure your part of the deal at least. Just my opinion.

I would wait, he has your money now regardless. Give him the 7 days to post he quoted.

Other than it being too cheap from what I have read he has only taken your money, there are other people here who tried to buy but were too slow. If it was a scam why limit yourself to taking money from only one person?

Plus PayPal, if it was s scam would they not be pushing for a bank transfer?

[s.mac]

I would hang on :)

[gingernuts]

This is like having a table full of people watch you making a fucking stupid bet at a card game.

But appreciate the advice either way gents.

Are you opening a book shimmy ?

Odds ?

[gingernuts]

Well, theres more plot twist to this than a Brian Singer film.

Seems Ive just for some unknown reason been refunded the full amount!

Some one else been along and paid him more?!

Did you send the money as a gift?

[s.mac]

At least you're not out of pocket mate :)

[gingernuts]

This was the reason

I have cancel PayPal transfer because it is not safe for me now to use
that because they put on hold the transaction too long.

I suspect if I asked to make another payment thats when the, "I just need your bank details, and mother maiden name sir would come out"

I saw your advert on Cutters. "Not sure on price but Likley it'll be £4.5k" lol

People were tripping over themselves for it 😆

Ne'er mind. It was an eyebrow raiser from the off.

I sold a complete interior earlier this year for a little bit more than £990!!

However if this does actually come off, don't be tempted to split the interior. From bitter experience it will sell for a premium keeping the interior as one.

[gingernuts]

Nah after enough warning signs and the refund I gave it up. It seemed worth a punt initially. but oh well.
