Don't Fall For This Cheap Scam By A Nigerian Car Dealer. by AutoJoshNG(op): 2:37pm On Aug 29, 2016

This particular 2004 Lexus RX330 seemed to be in pristine condition and the price was irresistible at a price tag of N2 million. I quickly reached for my phone to make enquiries and schedule a possible inspection. The seller sounded polite as he answered my questions, but my curiosity grew into suspicion when I asked for the location of the car. "Benin City, Edo State" he said.

My next question was directed at probing the reason for a major discrepancy in the vehicle's location as the online advert on was showing Alimosho, Lagos. After explaining that the vehicle was transferred to a car lot in Edo State, the guy stunned me by saying they would bring the car to Lagos for inspection on the condition that I transfer 10,000 Naira for fuel.

Despite telling him that I wasn't interested anymore, you won't believe this guy kept calling me back in a bid to convince me to pay that money; I laughed in my mind "this guy wan play sharp one for hin fellow car dealer".

I thought to share this as some of us may be gullible and fall for this simple cheat code.

Note: They will use the most sought after cars as bait.

Thanks for the orientation, the key to being duped has always been accepting offers too good to be true without due deliberation.
