Phone number ☎️ 07024027938 👆 is reported as a recurring scam targeting vehicle sellers on Auto Trader, involving fraudulent buyers using suspicious names and phone numbers. Potential victims receive emails or calls from individuals claiming interest in purchasing their cars, often mentioning haulage arrangements to Ireland without genuine intent. These communications typically contain spelling errors and ask for personal information or direct dealings with third-party hauliers. Users frequently verify these contacts online and find reports confirming their dubious nature. Authorities and Auto Trader have been alerted, yet sellers are advised to remain vigilant, avoid sharing details, and report such incidents promptly. This pattern of deception highlights the importance of thorough checks before proceeding with any unsolicited buyer enquiries.

10 yearsDodgy sellers from Ireland are exploiting Auto Trader for their own gain.IrelandAuto Trader10 yearsI received a pair of suspicious emails riddled with typos, featuring this phone number and a name that claimed they were keen to purchase our car. What's more, they were even willing to pay over the odds without laying eyes on it first! I did a bit of digging and stumbled upon this website. Cheers to you all for helping me dodge a potential disaster. Honestly, those individuals ought to face consequences for their actions. I've taken the liberty of reporting this as well.10 yearsWe recently received an email featuring the same chap regarding our car listing on Autotrader. We tend to look up phone numbers immediately, as we’re quite mindful of the numerous scams that are about. A big thank you to everyone for your contributions in backing up our concerns!Autotrader10 yearsIt appears that there's an Irish scammer taking advantage of individuals selling their vehicles on Auto Trader.Auto Trader10 yearsI've been falling victim to some dodgy calls lately. It seems like I'm being targeted by scammers.10 yearsAbsolutely, we had the same experience with a chap named James Kazidy! Really grateful for this site, it’s been a lifesaver.James Kazidy11 yearsI received an email from a chap named Rico Smith who claims to represent a company in Dublin, expressing an interest in purchasing our car that's listed on Auto Trader. The whole situation raised a few red flags for us, as his email was rather vague and he hadn’t even seen the vehicle himself. To make matters even more peculiar, he was asking us to coordinate with a transport company. After we sought clarification from him, we heard nothing back. I decided to look up his number on this site, and it turns out it's flagged as potentially dodgy.Rico SmithDublinAuto Trader11 yearsReceived an email from a chap named Rico Smith regarding the car we listed on AutoTrader. He requested that we give him a ring at 070214027938. Strangely, this is the second email I’ve had from someone supposedly based in Dublin. The first was from a Dr. James Kazidy, who also provided a suspiciously similar number, 07035939980. It all seems to be part of the same dubious scheme the AutoTrader website warns about.Rico SmithAutoTraderDublinJames Kazidy12 yearsBlimey! You won’t believe it, but we've had precisely the same experience! A chap called Mr Rico Smith got in touch, expressing interest in purchasing our car listed on Autotrader. He insisted we communicate directly with the transport company to arrange shipment to Dublin. It felt rather dodgy, so I decided to hunt down his phone number and stumbled upon this site. What a stroke of luck! This fella really ought to be flagged right away!BlimeyRico SmithAutotraderDublin12 yearsI strongly advise against proceeding with this; it turned out to be exactly what was previously noted - a scam. However, I found this website incredibly useful and it really saved me from making a monumental blunder! I’ll be notifying Autotrader about this.Autotrader12 yearsI wonder who's behind this particular phone number, to be honest.12 yearsI received a letter that's quite akin to the one sent to Rico. Decided to give the number a bell, but all it did was pick up without any clarity. It was a struggle to hear anything at all! I’ve had a word with Autotrader, and apparently, this is a recognised scam. Whatever you do, don’t share any personal details with this individual.RicoAutotrader12 yearsI recently received an email from the notorious Rico Smith regarding our advertisement on Autotrader. It struck me as rather suspicious, so we decided to look up the number. A big thank you to everyone who helped! We've reported this incident to Autotrader, just like many of you have done. Much appreciated!Rico SmithAutotrader12 yearsHi there! We recently received a letter from someone named Fred Wilner, who seemed to be inquiring about our vehicle. We hesitated to replicate her wording exactly, as it appeared eerily similar to prior correspondences we've had. Now, after receiving a second letter, it all feels a bit odd. After doing some internet sleuthing, we stumbled upon this website, and we’re quite grateful for it! A massive shout-out to everyone who has shared their experiences here. Just a heads-up: if you get any correspondence from Fred Wilner, regardless of the location, it’s probably wise to be cautious. Cheers! R.Fred Wilner12 yearsI’ve received the same email four times regarding a car we’ve listed on Auto Trader. The caller, a gentleman named Mr. Rico, claims to be calling from Dublin and questions why a UK mobile number is associated with the ad. Honestly, the text of the advertisement feels a bit off to us. There’s really no reason to enlist a haulage firm to transport a vehicle to Ireland when you can simply take the ferry over as a foot passenger and drive your newly acquired car back. The costs for using a haulage service would run into the hundreds, which seems over the top for this kind of arrangement.RicoDublinUKIreland12 yearsI had a similar experience. A bloke called Mr. Rico Smith expressing interest in purchasing our car that we'd listed on AutoTrader. He suggested we communicate straight with the transport company to arrange delivery to Dublin, which raised a few red flags for me. So, I thought it prudent to look up his phone number, and that’s how I landed on this site. Grateful for that! Now, how do I go about reporting this?Rico SmithAutoTraderDublin12 yearsAt the moment, we're promoting our car on Autotrader, and it's garnered us a few emails-one from a gent named Fred Wilner and two from another chap called Danny Western. To be honest, they’ve both raised a few red flags. They've asked us to call a particular number that others have mentioned. We did a bit of digging and stumbled upon this website. Just a heads up to everyone out there; it feels like these individuals might simply be swapping identities!AutotraderFred WilnerDanny WesternSubmit Your Own Report (070 2402 7938)
