July 31, 20159 yr comment_474868 I like how the poster flipped the photo in a couple of the ads and resized the photo, too. The area code for the number posted in several of the ads is for the northern part of Kansas.

August 1, 20159 yr comment_474888 Do any of you wonder what happened to the days when scammers used to put real effort into their scams so you could at least appreciate the amount of effort they put in to relieve you of your moneySent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/52001-z-scam/#findComment-474888 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually the saddle is worn on most 240z's. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/52001-z-scam/#findComment-474965 Share on other sites More sharing options...
August 2, 20159 yr comment_474969 That car ad showed up in my area as well. I bet the guy at the other end of that phone number isn't very happy right about now... Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/52001-z-scam/#findComment-474969 Share on other sites More sharing options...
August 2, 20159 yr comment_474973 Regarding the presumed-legit eBay car... perhaps it just me but there is something fundamentally wrong with a white interior in a Safari Gold car. The black engine bay is a usual giveaway for a color change and I certainly admire Safari Gold (no guesses why) but the combo just doesn't work for me. Oh well, opinions are like belly-buttons - everybody has one. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/52001-z-scam/#findComment-474973 Share on other sites More sharing options...
August 2, 20159 yr comment_474984 There's about 10-12 ads of the same car in my area as well... if it seems too good to be true, it probably is Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/52001-z-scam/#findComment-474984 Share on other sites More sharing options...
August 2, 20159 yr comment_474989 Somebody posted about it on Hybridz also but they moved it to their Tool Shed for some reason. Had some more details. Looks like the old "wire me the money and I'll have the car shipped scam". I felt the draw of one of those way back when I was first looking. Low price, need to sell", in the military (lends respectability), can't communicate directly, etc. All of the signs. http://forums.hybridz.org/topic/123073-scammers-on-z-cara-now/#entry1150782 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/52001-z-scam/#findComment-474989 Share on other sites More sharing options...
