Default Ebay Scam

Pictures of my 89 Turbo are in an ebay auction and I DID NOT PLACE THE AD.

DO NOT BID!

why don't we start bombarding the guy with emails asking him who he thinks he is. And that we want pics of the "real car" he has for sale.

Or do you just want us to stay out of it altogether?

I alerted eBay and the highest bidder so we'll see what happens. I'm tempted to bid on it myself and see what happens.

It's such a detailed ad...amazing. Such an incredible rip off. What nerve!

It shows 18 bids right now. I wonder how many of those are scams to bid up the price.

It is detailed because I wrote the ad here on Rennlist and copied it directly. Notice he airbrushed out the windscreen banner with my company name on it?

I remember your ad, Geoffrey. It's even more unbelievable he chose something so unique, with such a clear identity, to steal.
