Fulvia scam on eBay (again)

[Ed Levin]

Yet another Fulvia scam on eBay: 230187913121

Jaan Hjorth the owner of the car was been alerted ("unbelieveable" was his exact quote, as this is at least the third time for this car), and eBay has been alerted.

I've just e-mailed Jaan again. This is truly sick.

It seems like the Fulvia Coupe is a favorite scam car for some reason.
I can think of at least two other instances and a particular white Fulvia Coupe was on several times as well.
Ebay needs to do better!

Actually, the white Fulvia on the East Coast appeared to be a completely legitimate ad. But it in such awful condition that no one wanted it, and it was relisted in an attempt to find a scrap metal dealer who would pay for it.

I'm sure that any number of other cars are scammed every day, and we simply don't run across them because we aren't looking for that model. eBay can only take listings down when someone makes them aware of a problem. They're getting a little better at this--but certainly not perfect.

Jogo, 230189902396 is the scam car posted -- yet again!!!! The pictures and the text are lifted from an ad that Jaan Hjorst had a year or so back.

I find it incredible that e-bay allows this poster to continue.

What i find surprising about these pictures that I never thought tropical vegitation existed in NY!
Also read the chassis and engine number 2007! and, what else can it be 818.540 (fanalone) Does this guy think we are completly stupid!?
I too remember the car, the pictures and the accompaniyng text from Jaan. That explanes the sunny surroundings.

Hey William! I am obviously not the only "sharp-one" looking at these photos !
I am originally from NYC & I've also never seen that flora / fauna there either...except maybe in an horticultural-exhibition. I emailed asking "where were these photos taken" ? & "why does the blue Fulvia have Euro-Plates & not NY Plates " ?

I wonder what the response will be !
