To All Qlers,

Please be very careful when you buy a second hand vehicle from online Classified.

DO NOT TRUST A PERSON IF HE ASK YOU TO CONTACT THRU EMAILS ONLY.

Below email correspondence I purposely did to see if this guy is a fraud or not.

I request QL Admin to remove such Ads from QL Classified immediately.

Hello,

The car is in excellent condition, no damage, never involved in any accidents, no scratches, garage kept. It is working properly.I am the first owner of the car. I am from London , United Kingdom. I have a company here in United Kingdom and I've made businesses on Qatar and this car was used only for driving in Qatar where I've had some stores. Here in London I have a car with the steering weel on the right side so I do not use the car here. The car is registered in Qatar , I didn't registered in United Kingdom and all the papers are ok. Now I closed the stores from Qatar and I do not need anymore the car so for the sale it goes.The car will be shipped by a company from United Kingdom to your country. I will pay for shipping and insurance so you don't have to worry for more expences. The car will arrive to you in about 2-3 days and you will have 3 days to inspect it before take the decision to buy it or not.
If you need any further information please feel free to contact me.

Hello,

Due to the fact I am quite busy I found out a company which will help me to sell the car easily.
They will handle shipping, payment and everything else. I will pay all taxes for shipping.
You will have 3 days for inspect the car.Let me explain you how does the shipping company works. First I will get the car to the shipping company. When they will have the car in their custody(I will give you a tracking number so you can track the shipping process at any time) you have to transfer 40% from the car value to them (the shipping company will inform you how to make the payment). After the transfer is done the shipping company will put the money secure and they will continue the shipping. After you will receive and inspect the car (3 days) you will have to inform the shipping company if you want or not the car. In case you will keep the car you'll have to pay the rest of the money to the shipping company,in case you will not keep the car the shipping company will pay you back the money.

If you are interested get back to me and provide me the following details so I can make the shipping documents:

Name:
Address:
City:
Zip code:
Country:
Phone number:

Thanks

I am going to reply to him that once I see the vehicle physically I will pay the full price in cash. ;-)
