I can't believe people bid on this stuff.. are they stupid? greedy? Anyone with a brain cell should know this is a scam..

Oh, and these same crooks have my blue car up there now for $6000.. when you click the ad it takes you to a fake ebay site where they try and get your password and info..

:throw:

Search for '69 Camaro for my blue '69.. this link might work.. don't put in your password though...

How does the scammer make it take you to thier fake website when you click the scam auction of my old car???

And yea.. I feel honored that my car is used in so many rip off attempts.. actually I just want to beat on someone since people email me asking if I am doing this..

It's something they've linked in their auction. If you hit escape as soon as you hit the link, it takes you to an e-bay page, but then it automatically surfs to a new domain.

Steve,

How they do it it on your description page you can enter your own custom HTML. They write html that redirects you to thier fake site.

I reported both items.

I reported 9 auctions last night 8 69 Camaros and 1 Eleanor Mustang. That was actually the first time in awhile that I had seen any. Since ebay redid the site it's a pita to report one. Matter of fact I reported this auction they sure do move fast:lol: to remove them.

Someone is probably dumb enough to bid on it, and I remember at least one time when the blue car was on ebay. Sigh.

I overheard some cops the other day talking about how he got a bid that was good on his car right away, and they guy said he needed some money sent to someone else in the US and how he had a cashiers check written for more all ready and to just send him the rest back.

I thought the cop was going to arrested me for pissing in his cheerios when I informed him it was probably a scam, fortunately some of his buddies thought it might be a scam too.
