10 yearsFor the past week, we've been in touch via email with a certain Federico Reiss. I managed to give a bell to her 'brother-in-law', Richard Floss, once, but the call quality was dreadful, leading us to suspect she might not even be in the UK. To add to the confusion, we received a cheque allegedly from a company in Ireland, but bizarrely, it was sent from Greece! Although the company appears to be legitimate, we have serious concerns that the cheque is a fake, so we’ll be reaching out to them shortly. In the meantime, our vehicle hasn’t come anywhere near Federico.Federico ReissRichard FlossUKIrelandGreeceFederico10 yearsI find myself in a strikingly similar predicament. I received an email from a chap named Federico Reiss expressing interest in purchasing our BMW for a price just shy of what we were asking. He mentioned that his brother-in-law would swing by to check out the vehicle and settle the payment in cash. However, as the day of collection drew nearer, another email popped up, stating that instead of cash, we would receive a banker’s draft from a third party exceeding the amount we were promised as a deposit. They insisted we send a cheque to Floss (the brother-in-law) for the excess amount. Suffice to say, we’re not falling for that trick!Federico ReissBMWFloss10 yearsAbsolutely spot on! Just drop them a polite message to shove off, seems like a solid plan, doesn't it?10 yearsOnce again, I've encountered a scammer with the same tired trick. This time, they've ditched the phone number and instead, sent across an email: [email protected]. Naturally, I replied to let them know that any information they seek is already available on the AutoTrader website. They were specifically asking for our landline and home address, so I made it crystal clear that they won’t be getting any special treatment or details beyond what's publicly posted.AutoTrader10 yearsI’m experiencing a situation that's strikingly similar. I’m trying to sell my car through Autotrader, and a chap by the name of Hilary Moore from Switzerland decided to give me a ring. He’s using a Gmail address and insists on settling the payment with a banker’s draft. He mentioned sending his brother-in-law, Sandra Harmony, over to check the vehicle out! The number he called from is +447024060070. Quite the peculiar affair, wouldn’t you say?AutotraderHilary MooreSwitzerlandSandra Harmony10 yearsI received some emails from a chap named Federico Reiss using a Yahoo account, but bizarrely, he's telling the exact same story about a brother-in-law. Very peculiar, indeed!Federico ReissYahoo10 yearsWe've got an email from this chap as well, "Josef Blanck". It's quite peculiar, really. He’s spun us the same exact yarn.Josef Blanck10 yearsWe've had an eerily similar experience! I received an email containing my brother-in-law's mobile number, and it bears an uncanny resemblance to other reports here. Clearly a scam at play, but it does make one wonder how many folks have fallen for this already!11 yearsShortly after I spotted the listing on Autotrader, I received a rather peculiar email. It appears to be from Richard, who is related to Floss. I think one ought to ring them up to sort out a viewing or something of that nature. I must admit, I didn't get in touch with the number immediately after perusing the other comments, so a big thanks to everyone for that. I'm not entirely sure what the exact scam was, but it seems she pulls this stunt regularly. Quite odd, really!AutotraderRichardFloss12 yearsI recently received a correspondence from a gentleman in Switzerland who seems keen on purchasing my vehicle. She has asked for some photographs and insists that she is genuinely interested. Apparently, her brother-in-law resides in the UK and she's said she’ll handle all the logistics for the purchase and shipping. However, the contact number provided is a rather unusual 070, which has raised some red flags for us. She’s urging us to ring this number, but I’m quite wary about the legitimacy of this whole affair. Could anyone offer insights on whether this could be a scam or if there's a chance it’s authentic?SwitzerlandUK12 yearsWe've encountered this too. It's definitely a scam. Not quite certain about their motive. Why not have a bit of fun with them and see if you can turn the tables on them when the opportunity arises?12 yearsWe’ve just had a rather uncanny experience with a chap named Federico Reiss, who’s apparently living in Denmark! What on earth possesses individuals to pull such stunts?Federico ReissDenmark12 yearsI recently received a rather suspicious text from a bloke calling himself Federico Reiss from Denmark, who seemed keen to purchase a car. He asked for some pictures and mentioned that his brother-in-law in the UK would come to take a look and pick it up. He provided the number +4407024060070. When we gave it a ring, it turned out to be a strange one, not a genuine UK number at all, and just rang out! What the heck is going on?Federico ReissDenmarkUK12 yearsWe had the exact same experience with Federico when he advertised his car on Autotrader! We suggested that our brother-in-law check the vehicle out at our place of work, which happens to be the Lincolnshire Police HQ. Honestly, I’m not holding my breath for any further updates from them! 😂FedericoLincolnshirePolice HQSubmit Your Own Report (070 2406 0070)
