Looks dodgy to me .No phone number is the first alarm bell. Then the price, $7200 for a gt coupe, dont think so. Why dont the cops find and charge these dogs?

The cost to find these vermin would probably outweigh the benefits gained. Often they are overseas as well.

Either way, item reported. See how long it takes to get removed?

Paypal is the big scam nowdays. Shame you mate got stung. It's easy to do and not everyone knows about this type of scam and how it works. If its paypal, it sounds legit.
