Beware of fake advertisements in Classifieds for sale/purchase of cars....

I have just discovered/confirmed through exchange of emails with the FAKE guy regarding a Toyota Corolla 2009 Model which he is selling at QR 22,000....

He is asking to submit half price of the car and then he will ship the car from LONDON... ???

His User ID should be blocked by the Administrator of Qatarliving.com

His email ID is : [email protected]

You can see his advertisement on January 12, 2009.

This morning, there some Nissan advertisements (Altima 22K QR & Armada 30K QR) which very cheap. But i learned that his phone number are not Qatar, and background of the car picture also not depicts Qatar. So this is the indication we have to aware !

Be careful Man.. Many fake car sellers nowadays in QL. Remember only deal with car seller which you can meet in real.
