I was almost a Victim to these guyz.. The dude advertised a Honda Evil Spirit (2010) for N800k, we had 1.2M budgeted for EOD already, i tot it was Ans prayers.. I called d cwasy fellow, and he asked me to come to their Auction park at Abeokuta, Mind U, I work at VI.. I left the office to go down to Abeokuta during office hours to go pay for the ride. I held 100k along, in other to make deposit as initially requested by him to secure the car.

As soon as I got to Abeokuta, I called the Eediot, he picked up and told me dat he's sorry that he said Sango, not Abk.. I went back to Sango n called him.

He picked n said dat he was sorry that he was sent to Sagamu.. It was den dat I began to suspect him.

I called one of my friends at MTN office to help me trace his line immediately and send me his full details. I was informed dat he registered his name as just Josef n he wrote Airport road as his address..

I was VEXED!!!

But I fank God dat he saved me from his hands..

na testimony be this! Ur Pastor don hearam?

I WOULD BE GOING TO SEME BODER NEXT YEAR JUST WANT TO KNOW IF THERE IS GOING TO BE ANY CUSTOM AUCTIONING NEXT YEAR

Dont just waste ur time going there,because i went there early last month to see and confirm things for myself due to numerous and outrageous low prices of cars i see online,i met one custom man at seme border and he told me not to listen to anybody concerning auction sales of cars. He said dat auctioning of cars are done face to face in abuja,cash and carry no stories..

What can I say? When u try to make a sale and buyer tells you X,Y or Z website is selling it at an obviously ridiculous price, what can you do? Just wish the buyer Good luck. Penny wise, pound foolish.

Someone once told me that she saw 2008 Range Rover HSE listed for $6000. All explanations fell on deaf ears. what else can a brother do that let her try, since only a trial would convince her that her fund is gone.

even on fcaebook?coz I hsv been seeing a lot of auctions there oo

Bought a car at Cotonou Benin Already
visit www.cotonoucars.net now and apply for your car to be delivered to you in Nigeria with Accident immunity Cover for just a token.

Caveat emptor .
If you indeed bought a car on that site and awaits delivery then be sure you have been cowed.
BEWARE

@ femmy2010 I absolutely agree with you.

The simple question i have is that, does the custom service auction cars?
if yes how do we get connected to them if we wish to buy cars from it.
i agree there are scammers ,but many who spoke against customs or others on this thread are car dealers

A word is enough for the wise.

Would always advice my prospective Buyers please try to see what you want to purchase before making any payment at all.

I don't know why people fall for such scams.

[b]Day In Day Out, Fraudsters are seeking for New Ways to Fleece Nigerians of their Hard Earned Money, The Latest Scheme is about Purported sales of Nigerian Customs Seized Vehicles Online Auction.

Within the past 30 days, I have Banned Over 200 usernames and Over 1000 Fraudulent Posts and Threads of Sales of Customs Seized vehicles on the Autos Section Which were without any Doubt Fraudulent.

The Modus Operandi of these Nefarious Elements are to Post Purported Customs Seized Vehicles at RIDICULOUSLY LOW Prices and Demand for Deposits to "Secure the Car " or "Secure the File" at Customs Offices.

Most Times, they go as far as Posting Photos of Customs Officials on their Profile Pages thereby Impersonating genuine Customs Officers.

They have Flooded the Nigerian Online Space now and are On Every Major Car Websites with Free Listings.

A Couple of Months Ago, The PUNCH Newspapers Nabbed a Syndicate of These Type of Fraud from an Innocent Buyer Who wanted to Buy a 2010 Toyota Camry for N400,000.

You can read it here http://www.punchng.com/feature/saturday-people/customs-officer-duped-me-says-man-who-wanted-to-give-mum-a-car-gift/

We Encourage Buyers to Beware of Auto Adverts with Ridiculously Low Prices, It takes a certain level of Greed to Fall Victim of Fraud in Most cases.



NIGERIAN CUSTOMS DO NOT Auction Cars Online, NOT Anywhere in the Country, All Customs Auction Bids Are Done Physically from ABUJA.

Furthermore, We Encourage Buyers to Know Who they are dealing With, Not all that Glitters is Gold and Not Everything You see Online is Genuine.

We Implore Members to report Suspicious Adverts to the Moderators Via the " Report to Moderator Button" Located on every Post.

Cheers

So sometimes there will be this kind of situation, we have well prepared

I really feel a Cybercrime Agency should be set up in Nigeria charged with the sole responsibility of monitoring and tracking incidents of fraud online.
