Fake.

He listed first in Krauchenwies for 1 or 2 years single cars, never got a response and now he listed this barn finds few km to my hometown.
Asked some in the Porsche scene here. The "seller" is a Immobilen trader, who collects adresses ;-)

Would not recommend to send your real adress.

Good morning

Could that be a scam?

This hapened when trying to sell my 1968 S Coupe:

After having been entertained by a senior member of this Forum during two months assuring me that he was going to purchase the car and that the sale was done, at the end, the would-be buyer's money did not materialize apparently, he said, for problems with a loan, and after draining myself of all kind of information and questions about the 1.968 S.

In the middle of the waiting, I have been e-mailed repeatedly by the would-be buyer requesting me to provide a "clear frontal close-up picture of the chassis number". I replied that to me, it seems very dangerous to send such a picture through Internet because that is the easiest way to transfer the chassis number to another shell or another chassis, but that if they could get the original record from the Porsche factory, I will provide a picture of the chassis number to contrast both.

Why such an interest ? Is there anything else you could do with a "clear frontal close-up picture of the chassis number" ?

By the way, the same senior member of this Forum, in a thread started by himself for his car, did published about his car : "Chassis No. 1182xxxx (‘T’)".

Even the shipping was already arranged.

So the car is for sale again.

Thanks

R.V.

P.D: Those are the pictures that I originally posted, included four or five where the chassis number or parts of it could be seen if zoomed in. I consider the chassis number is clear enough, but the pictures are not frontal pictures as requested.

There apparently there are a number of SCAM ads appearing on the PCA Panorama Website. Two recently documented on this forum:

Hi Everyone - Looking to purchase my first air cooled 911 and I'm concerned that the car is fake. 0.jpeg Let me know what you think. The car is supposed to be a 1970 911E but the 6th digit on the vehicle id is a 3. From my research "3" was for the 914/6 and 924.

I appreciate your help. Thanks!
