SCAM ALERT
SCAM ALERT – Switch and Bait / Fake Buyer Scheme
This website is part of a repeated and deliberate scam targeting sellers on online marketplaces.
The individual behind this site constantly sends unsolicited text messages to people advertising vehicles or heavy equipment. The messages are clearly automated (likely a bot) and follow the exact same script every time.
How the scam works:
The scammer contacts sellers claiming strong interest in purchasing an item.
He implies he will complete the purchase “the next day” or very soon.
After several back-and-forth messages, he suddenly claims he needs a “T-Summary” to proceed.
He then sends a link to WEBSITE , pressuring the seller to purchase a so-called report.
Once the seller pays for this fake report, the buyer disappears.
There is never any real intent to purchase.
Why this is clearly fraudulent:
The person is thousands of miles away despite claiming imminent pickup.
The messages are repetitive, scripted, and sent at scale.
The requested “T-Summary” is not a legitimate industry requirement.
The reports sold are worthless and purely a money grab.
This scam has been repeated many times with the same wording and process.
My experience:
I am a legitimate heavy equipment dealer with thousands of active listings and multiple websites. I receive these scam messages constantly, and it is always the same scheme. No legitimate buyer operates this way.
❌ DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY
These reports are phony, the buyer is fake, and the entire operation exists only to collect fees from unsuspecting sellers.
The website is less than 1 month old and changes it web address and name constantly - SO A SCAM.
⚠️ Final Warning
Avoid this site completely.
Do not click their links.
Do not buy their reports as they will harvest your credit card details .
Report and block anyone directing you to this website.
