Fake car sale ads

To all QLers,
There's this guy which i dont know his user name but he is using [email protected]. he advertised a 2007 model toyota prado with a deceiving price 28,000 QR.
my friend contacted him through email. the guy replied and said he's in london now and only if my friend is serious he will come to sell the car. then he said to guaranty that we'll buy the car we should deposit 10,000 QR via western union to london to anybody's name and send copy of the receipt to him. we obviously noticed he's only a faker.

Please be aware if you saw some ads like that.
I already tried to report to admin but i didnt get any feedback if that complain is delivered.

Have a safe surf!

Plenty of adverts like this on a daily basis.

Even today, you can see Honda accord 2009 @ 27000 QR.

Surprised the way they take pictures of these cars and get enroll on QL.

I'm using QL more than 4 years now and I really didnt know there are scams like that in here.

i dont know if there's any technical way to go after those people but if it was, that could be helpful. some people some how may fall in the trap
