Cheap used car, I don't know if it's true or not. . Ask friends in Shanghai who want to buy two drivers to help them have a look.

victim: I was cheated like this when I bought a second-hand car.

Zhaoyuan, Miss Wang told her story about the second-hand car trading scam:

Not long ago, Miss Wang just got her driver's license, and her hand was itchy. She always wanted to get a second-hand car to drive, so she paid attention to the second-hand car trading information when surfing the Internet. One day, he saw a message on a website in Qingdao, saying that a number of cars confiscated by the customs were now handled at low prices and could be transferred. Miss Wang chose an Elantra made in 23 with a asking price of 16,, so he called it according to the online phone, and a girl answered it. After some bargaining, the two sides finally reached an agreement with 9, yuan. In the final details of the transaction, the girl said, let our manager Wang talk to you, and then told a mobile phone number. Miss Wang called, and a man with a southern accent answered the phone. He told Miss Wang to pay 1 yuan money first, and then they sent the car by container. When Miss Wang raised an objection, the other party said that this was a risk guarantee. "We will transport the car in the past. What if you don't want it?" So you can play 1 yuan first, which is to see the sincerity of both sides. " After some bargaining, the final deposit was reduced from 1 yuan to 5 yuan. Miss Wang then transferred the money according to the account provided by the other party. Soon, the other party told her that the car will arrive in these two days, and then pay for it.

to miss Wang's surprise, yesterday, manager Wang called him and told him that the car had arrived in the south of Zhaoyuan city, and asked him to prepare 9 yuan and ID card for the transaction. I can't get the money for a while, so I call my friend Xiao Li to borrow money. Seeing that Elantra is about to come to hand, Miss Wang also said with emotion to her friends: I didn't expect the efficiency of this institution to be so fast.

after hearing this, her friend Xiao Li warned her that she was likely to encounter a scam. "Think about it, no matter how cheap a car with a market price of more than 1, yuan is, it won't cost you 9, yuan!" The black car can't be at this price, and it can also be transferred. There will be no pies in the sky, and the so-called pies are often traps. "

Miss Wang hesitated at the words of her friends: No, that manager Wang said that he lived in Jincheng Hotel in the south of the city.

Some knowledgeable Xiao Li firmly believed that her friend had been cheated, and decided to accompany Miss Wang to visit the hotel. She told Miss Wang in advance that she must master a principle: no money for missing the car. "I guess not only the car didn't arrive, but also the people didn't arrive. He was directing all this by phone." Sure enough, Miss Wang went to the hotel to check that there was no manager Wang, and then called again. The other party said that the car had arrived now and asked Miss Wang to pay 3, yuan in the account first. They immediately drove the car. Miss Wang asked to see the car first. Manager Wang said, no, our company has strict discipline, and staff members are not allowed to conduct cash transactions directly with customers. Money must be credited to the account designated by the company. And stressed that "I have sent all the cars to your site. What are you worried about? You know, we must be careful in doing such business." Miss Wang insisted on paying after seeing the car. Manager Wang said that if so, there would be no business. Miss Wang replied that if the business fails, please give me back 5 yuan's money. Manager Wang said that 5 yuan is the cost of sending the car to Zhaoyuan. We can't compensate for such a big cost. Pay 3 yuan to see the car, otherwise the business will not be done.

At this time, Miss Wang finally believed that she had indeed met a liar, and she was a little angry and scolded Manager Wang on the phone.

Reporter's verification: There are quite a few such scammers on the Internet.

After hearing about this scam, the reporter specially browsed their crime tool-the webpage that released information. The reporter filled in the word "Toyota Camry 2.,36," on Baidu search, and found more than 7 web pages after the search, most of which were about selling used car information. The reporter randomly selected a few, and dialed the number provided above on the grounds of buying a car, and found that many of them had stopped working. Some of them hurriedly hung up after hearing that they were reporters.

In order to lure consumers, information publishers have also made their own propaganda slogans, some of which are very disgusting. The reporter saw a second-hand car trading message on a website in the province, and its propaganda slogan made people look ridiculous: "Your choice is our glory! Your satisfaction is our pursuit! Your suggestion is our wealth! We have been working hard! Our shop strives for survival by honesty! Seek development with credibility! I hope you can buy your dream car with the mentality of' worth buying and getting value'. Integrity and trust are the basis of online transactions. I hope we can cooperate happily! "

However, the relevant websites have noticed the existence of these fraud incidents. Just above this information, the website reminds consumers: Recently, scammers from outside the province have repeatedly posted information about cheap notebooks, computers and cars on this website, so please be cautious in trading!

Insiders: It is impossible to have such a cheap car

Compared with being cheated to go to 5 yuan, Miss Wang is lucky. Mr. Tian from lai shan kept making money into the account provided by the other party because of his greed for cheap, and was finally cheated to go to 8.8 yuan.

"This is obviously a fraud. You can't buy such a cheap used car through regular channels." Guo Wei, manager of Yantai used motor vehicle trading center, said.

It is understood that this kind of low-priced and high-end second-hand car trading information has appeared two years ago, and it will flood the Internet for a while every once in a while, and there are always people who don't know the truth and are greedy for cheap.

In fact, it is easy for citizens to see through these simple scams with a little caution. According to reports, the so-called smuggling of cars and the confiscation of cars by customs are not the case at all. Domestic cars are so cheap, who will take such a big risk to smuggle them? Cars confiscated by customs can only enter the market through auction. How can there be so many so-called cars confiscated by customs?

"According to the models and conditions described by the seller, the normal market price of Passat is about 12, yuan, that of Accord is at least 13, yuan, that of Audi is about 15, yuan in 24, and that of Audi A6 is not a problem." Liu Jian of Yantai Automobile City said that it is really abnormal to sell it at a price less than 1/3 or even lower than the market price. Even if the car is real, there must be something wrong with its origin.

"Consumers who want to buy second-hand cars must inquire about the market first, and can't be impulsive just because the price is cheap." Liu Jian reminds consumers that used cars are a special commodity, and they need to be rational when buying, so beware of being cheated.

police reveal: new tricks of the old-fashioned scam

According to reports, online low-priced second-hand car sales fraud has four characteristics: First, they explain that the reason why cars are very cheap is that cars are smuggled or confiscated by customs, so they need money urgently, so they are dealt with cheaply; Second, only leave a mobile phone number on the Internet, leaving no fixed telephone number and no company address. Even if the company address is left, it is very vague, such as Shanghai Pudong, Shenzhen Luohu and Guangdong Dongguan. Third, you need to pay a deposit ranging from one to two thousand yuan first; Fourth, the ownership of their registered mobile phone number and card number is inconsistent with the location of the "company".

In view of this kind of scam that appeared on the Internet recently, the police reminded the public that it was a very old-fashioned scam. The fraud method was the same as the previous short message fraud methods such as recruitment fraud, false certificate fraud, winning prize fraud, etc., except that short messages or street advertisements were used in the past. This kind of online fraud made use of the credibility of media advertisements and websites to some extent. Probably because there is not much market for old-fashioned methods such as SMS fraud, scammers will renovate their tricks and continue to cheat. Any fraud activity must first throw out the bait, and the bait of such fraud is the "ultra-low-priced second-hand car". They first explain that the reason for the ultra-low price is that these cars are stolen cars, which makes you believe that the ultimate goal is to get the "deposit" and "sincerity money". If you pay it, he will continue to let you remit money under various names until you find out that you are cheated. In fact, they don't have a car at all, and people aren't in Yantai at all. Their phone numbers are mostly "one-number" and other services, so they can transfer calls to several phones, and you don't know where the other party is at all.
