BUYER SAFETY TIPS
Don't send money or a deposit before you have seen the vehicle and checked the details match the listing.
Check the VIN on the vehicle matches the registration documents and the number in the listing.
Ask for a signed sale agreement and receipt, and complete the change of ownership properly.
Genuine sellers give you time to decide. Pressure to pay immediately is a red flag.
View vehicles at the seller's business address or a busy public place, ideally with someone you trust.
Use the Report link on the listing. Our team looks into every report.
