As some of you may have read in the thread below, I have taken on a lad (possibly from Spain, although IP traces to UK) who is scamming people on Autotrader UK.

Original thread = http://forum.419eater.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=246476&highlight=

I am more than baiting him, I have declared war. I am killing his fake ad posts on AT as fast as he can re-post them. I have reported his bank account, and I am working to get his fake "Google Wallet" website shut down.

But, that's not enough!!!!! I would REALLY like to get a mass bait going. I work in the car business in RL, protecting consumers, so this scam hits close to home for me. And REALLY PISSES ME OFF!!! This douch bag deserves some of our love and attention. Especially from those of you in the UK (or who have UK-based characters).

So, if you would like to join me in torturing him, please begin posting here. He is very impatient and will drop you if you ask too many questions. If you ask for more pictures, he just resends the ones from the ads. If you ask for V5 document, he refuses to send it for "security reasons". He's not very cooperative, so the best place to torture him is to get to the money part fast. He claims to use "Google Wallet" and has (for the moment) a reasonably well done fake site and fake "invoice" emails. (The fact that Google does not support Wallet anymore, nor did it ever operate in the UK or do anything related to vehicle sales is irrelevant.)

Here is the list of cars he has for sale on Autotrader UK, the price (in pounds) and the email address associated with each car (all addresses are @yahoo.co.uk). Please pick a car that you like and bait away!!!
