I'd be careful about contacting this "seller" since we know they are a scammer. Who knows how they can mess with us and/or our accounts.

BTW, the listing is still up. It will be interesting to see the response. We know the game: tell them we have a friend near where the car is located so it can be inspected.

This Ebay user changed the last digit of the vin number
From 7 to 8 so he can get a ride in the listing ...
He played with COA and door tag and data plate pictures
Working with ebay to stop the listing...
Looks like professional criminal...
