Hi-Tek 3 Report post Posted August 1, 2009 Email I received from trademe a few minutes ago... Dear ******,We have concerns about the listing for the BMW 325i E30 5SPD 1986 (#233552106) which you viewed on the Trade Me website recently.The listing was created by an overseas scammer and it is not genuine. The vehicle does not exist.An email address was included in the description for this listing prompting you to contact the seller directly. For your own security you should not send any emails to that address.*************************************************************For your security you should not complete this trade. *************************************************************- If you're ever asked to trade with an international member please do not go through with the trade as you may be at risk.- A common tactic for overseas scammers is to send emails that state they're safe to trade with - and sometimes the emails are designed to look like they're from Trade Me or a 3rd party payment service (Safetrader etc).- You should never make payment via a wire transfer service such as Western Union, Money Gram etc.Remember - Trade Me does not allow traders from overseas. If you are contacted by an overseas trader do not respond to the email. If you have concerns over a trader's authenticity please contact our customer support team immediately.Also, please click the following link to visit our 'Safe Computing Centre' for some important safety tips:http://www.trademe.co.nz/Help/SafeComputingCentre.aspxI’m sorry that you have had this experience and hope you continue to enjoy using the site.If you have further questions regarding this issue please reply and we will answer your email as soon as possible.Regards,RobynTrade Me Supporthttp://www.trademe.co.nz Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

e30plz 1 Report post Posted August 1, 2009 That comment by Simon. "OK Mr Noy benefit of the doubt is over. You are a f**ktard Your credibility just doused itself in green chartreuse, set the zippo to itself and jumped from a 9th story window of a notorious men's turkish bathing establishment in flames screaming "I couldn't take it anymore, I love the cock!" RIP That may not be very PC or even appropriate for a mod but people who pull this sh*t on TM really get on my wick. Someone email them and get the little creep banned - I'm busy drinking" Lol'd hard when I first read that. Gold. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
