As a warning to others not that we were caught read my last thread on the ford fiesta for sale in the for sale section on here, it tells the last email about a scam that is running for all types of goods. we stopped the sell after discussing it with the police. so don't get caught.

Just as a follow up and as a warning to others, the sale of the car was a scam and we have stopped the sale, i have put a copy of the last email on here including the prices, after discussing it with the police we decided that it was a scam.
Look at the grammar and the way the email is written, but the giveaway more than that is the money back, they send a stolen cheque collect the money and goods from the customer and are well gone before the cheque bounces even if the cheque has been cleared by the bank.
Copy of last email
"Hello,
How are you? I hope all is fine with you? I just want to inform you
that My company called me that they have sent out the draft for the
car to you.
I must also inform you that there is a little mix up which really
grief me as it cannot be reverted. I have been making arrangement with
a shipping company before now, as regard the paper works and all
transfer of ownership and agreement between us "the seller and the
buyer". They will also take care of the insurance, taxes, MOT, and
change of registration plate number from yours to mine as the new
buyer. then will finally ship the car to our home in Edinburgh. All
this they say, will cost me

I have nearly completed the sale of the wifes car so two 4x4s look as though they may be coming our way.
MUD here we come

still finding it hard to get replies from qype no matter how or where i post the email, the only place i get a response is when i go on here and state my thoughts.
this should not be.

I have just sold my security cameras to a friend and whilst they all worked when taken down we cant find one of the leads that we need, does anyone on here have anything to do with cameras, we need to know how to wire this one up as it has 6 wired not the normal two ie paower and coax, the wire colours are red/white, red, black, black/white, yellow, white, we dont have a make on the camera but we do have GTNV40VF/S written on the manufacturers label and it is an infra red camera. we need to know which wire goes to where so that we can loop it in the system.
thanks in anticipation
Steve

Thanks for the reply and the moving of the thread to the right area. i will look into it later, the uk based host sounds good.

Looking to find a new host for my 4 websites, (soon to be three) where do you guys host and are they any good, i mean there is cheap and there is reasonable, i need to be able to understand the person at the other end of the phone, when i ask questions. i can never understand those people at 1 and 1 they all talk funny or with accents i cant understand, so i left them 2 years ago.

Cheers i am sure that it will be well used.

Meant to say if there is one on here can you tell me where it is and if i can get on it.

I wish we had a for sale section on here, then i could try to sell all of my unwanted bits and buy another gas guzzler.

I know what you mean. i just want to sell the two houses and release some cash and hoepfully my second computer and the wifes car THEN i can think of serious off roading again, but keeping out of the mud of course. Yeah like i would.
