    It keeps getting re-posted up on DD again and again.

    Does DD have any internal 'fraud alert' for ads that have been repeatedly reported to them??!

    No, donedeal couldn't give a **** about fraudulent ads, every time they are pulled and reposted they get their 5 quid. I've reported tons of clocked cars to see them reposted the next day.

    Is Everson Trading Corporation not a legitimate company though ?
    They offer protection for both buyer and seller,they dont release the funds to the seller until the buyer is happy with the purchase.

    no doubt the account you would send the money too and the Everson you would be dealing with are fakes.

    I suspect that's the case.

    They probably use a throwaway subdomain URL like eversontrading.xyz.com, which changes with every sucker.

    80sDiesel, pop up the dodgy URL/email addresses when the ruse is up. That way they'll appear in a search by anyone wondering if something is too good to be true. :)

    Jessica must have two of these cars as she emailed me the same story. Or should I ask her if 80sDiesel is no longer interested in the car?

    Everson Trading is not real. You can see when you type in the address . I did some google searches and its only mentioned in some forum posts. ( obviously planted )....there is no google web hit for their address.
    Hopefully this thread will soon appear in google searches so others will know it is fake.

    You make a good point. I thought there might be a legit company somewhere after seeing some of those posts. Suckerrrrr! (Now where's my E-Type?)

    Last year my daughter came to me asking me to bring her to an audition with a talent agency in Dublin, the agency was called premiere event and on there website made loose claims to be a recutrment agency for Disney and nicolodian. I brought her along and when we got there the room had hundreds of young kids all waiting to be auditioned.
    Anyway to cut a long story short my daughter was selected and we were given literature explaining the costs which was running above €10,000. So I googled it and all the initial hits were so positive until I dug a little further. Goes to show you can't believe everything you see in the web.

    Was that written on the ad? I can't see it now as its gone.
    I did send a strongly worded letter to them last night because I have an advertisement up for some puppy's at the moment and they were quite stringent on the guidelines that they set out, which is good for animal welfare but there doesn't seem to be any moderation of the auto ads.

    When I click on the link I see the (blank) DD page with the 'not genuine' notice. I can still see it.

    The mustang has been up and removed a couple of times this week. It's back up again.
