I would guess the scammer has copied this listing from somewhere else complete with name and number. I doubt "Ian" has anything to do with it and doesn't know about this listing.


Yes that's what I mean - as in I doubt that's the actual scammer.
How long does it typically take for eBay to take down scammer adverts?

Excitedly making camping plans for this year.... just can't make up my mind at the moment!

Who ever it is is also unable to get the right pictures on the ads. Most of them have a different items picture at the end of the photos. Well spotted Millermicm

It just amazes me that in this high tech age you cannot dial 999 and report this crook for committing this crime before our very eyes.

The old ID was coming up on a number of scam buster websites so I guess he is trying to keep his dirty dealing secret.

Great - Looks like ahme.nowee or thomas.ehrlichmann now has no items for sale, so I assume Ebay have taken action or he has taken them down himself.

Wonder how long before he pops back up under a different id.


Well done millermicm.

Congratulations To ukcs members for reporting him along with other anti scammer websites he was on. It's just a shame that it's necessary to take the authorities by the sleeve to show them the way.

Yes i took the liberty of finding this member and it states (no longer a registered user).But beware,He will be back somewhere else.Never buy anything expensive without viewing first even from a reputable dealer.

What is he and ebay playing at...



He was going to rip you off. Ebay banned him.


Simple as. They prey on people being greedy and wanting a bargain. A tractor for £6000. When the real advert had it up at £37,000.   £9000 for a £30,000 BMW.. etc etc etc...

If its cheap there is a reason. Probably moved to ebay from Autotrader because they had a clampdown. Probably wont last though.
