Why is it Scammers are allowed on PH sales?

[bobo]

Everytime i post a classified for a car i get interest from scammers, a long conveloted interest, appointment arranged and then... oh will you just send me www.theinspectview.com report pls?

name and shame.... 2nd time now this company has employed fake interest / users to purchase, not my car but their docs just before they inspect the car.

feel sad for the 1000s falling for this cr5p.

Guess it is worth their while, but not sure 1,000s are falling for it

"Zade Alex" <[e-mail]> scammer employed by theinspectview.com

[pja]

I have a caravan for sale on www.caravansforsale.co.uk
& had three in less than a week wanting me to book an inspection with theinspectview.com

They all start off with the same questions (the answers to which are all in the description)
so that does make them easier to spot!
They all start with
“Can you tell me about ownership history”
Then
“What’s the reason you are selling”
Then
“How do you except payment”

Then they hit you with can you book an inspection with theinspectview.com
“The live chat will help you out” which of course will be them

Next I assume is your credit card details & that’s all they wanted!

Obvious to some I know but I found this thread by searching theinspectview.com
So I’ve gone into detail in the hope others will & it will clear up any doubt it’s dodgy!
