Our motorhome is up for sale and advertised on eBay. We have had a number of enquiries. Today there were 3 requests to come and view. All asked for address details and motorhome registration. All were mobile numbers and stated that they were from, Hackney, Luton and Holyhead.
This evening when we were out had three separate calls and all reported that HPI checks revealed the vehicle was a category C insurance write off. After the third caller I told them to go forth and multiply as it was a scam.
Came home and for peace of mind and for the benefit of a genuine buyers I did a HPI check.
No surprise everything clear.
Not sure how the scam works but vehicle is on drive and alarmed and wheel clamped plus blocked in by the car.
Feel it should be reported, but to who ?
I do have the phone numbers but guarantee they will be PAYG.
