Scam sale on Ebay? Grey S2 reg KXI 7978

Unless anyone knows different, this looks like a scam listing added onto a hacked account - steve_citroen. The 2nd photo has a stock message telling people to go off Ebay to complete the purchase via a dodgy-looking Gmail address. The selling account shows over 1400 similar listings, all with the identical 2nd photo.

The seller's sold item feedback list doesn't have any similar vehicle sales.

I have reported the listing and account to Ebay customer services, and sent a message to the account owner.

Extremely common. TVRs are often listed like this. I reported 2 x Lotus Elans listed this way today.

It's people finding out a real user's log in password and hoping to find someone gullible enough to send money on one cloned listing. I'm amazed anybody falls for it but the effort scammers put in, somebody must. There are often hundreds of them but if an account has been used with the correct password, it's difficult to stop unless it's reported.
