Yesterday this contact posted an adv. offering Infinity 2008 for sale for 30,000 and he mentioned his email without a contact number .

He replied me that he is living in UK and he wants to sell his car in Qatar as its not alowed to drive it in Uk as the driver's side is different in there.

Iam emailed him that I am a serious buyer then he replied me with an email to send him a proof through westernunion to make sure that he is not going to come for nothing and I have the full amount of mony. I googled his email and the results have shown that he had two Ads one that he posted yesterday and another one for another car Mostang one , but both ads removed from QL 

 

So please tell me if he is a scamer here is his email  [email protected]

 

Incase he is he might Enter the website again and post the car so lets see !

"I`m going to work on a cruise ship for the next 6 months and i had to arrange all details with my employer. The price is real, there are no hidden taxes or fees. At the moment you can not view the motorcycle because it is in a shipping company custody. They are authorized to sell and deliver the motorcycle under my name since i am not able to meet potential buyers."- This is a reply I received from one such Qatarliving ad. There's something really fishy going on here...

I too have noticed these ads for excellent cars at perhaps half of the current market value. Clearly its "fishy."

What I have also noticed however - and do  tunderstand - is how these ads appear in Qatar Living (I usually see them at about 7pm) and then dissappear 3 or 4 hours later.

I expected that these cars where not here - maybe Dubai where cars are cheaper - but when he publishes photos the numbers on the car seem to indicate a local registration. Whats the game ???

ofcourse he is a SCAMMER....As mentioned in the QL rules don't try to buy anything from outside of Qatar through QL unless you verified about the product and the sellers. And thanks for sharing this in QL , it is helpful to others also...

Of course it is a scam, the same person uses many different email adresses. And also, look at the price of the car he offered you, wouln't you think it is way to cheap ?
