Is this ecsrow company fraud?

[kristsimo-81]

Hi Guys,

I just really would like to know wether you've heard anything about the next company:

Spectra-Holding Ltd

 Their site: http://spectra-holding.co.uk

They are supposed to be an escrow company specialised in CARS.

I don't know wether its a reliable company or not!

Help me with this one please!;)

Cheers!!!

Are you selling a car?

I wouldn't trust them. Their whois is private. Any LEGITIMATE business would have a public whois profile.

All eBay sales go through eBay payment. There's never an escrow company involved.

 Safety Tips When Buying a Vehicle on eBay

1. FACT:  Common payment methods used in legitimate purchases are cash in person, PayPal, credit card, money order, cashier's/personal cheque, or financial loans. Criminals may tell you the eBay Financial Centre will manage the transaction and you can deposit money into an eBay Holding/Escrow Account.  Fraudsters may tell you the money not be released until you are satisfaction with the purchase.  This is FRAUD; eBay does NOT offer Escrow or other types of holding accounts

[kristsimo-81]

No, I'd buy one:)

[kristsimo-81]

no, I'd buy one:) 

[kristsimo-81]

no, I'd buy one, but not via Ebay!!!

I would buy the car from a guy who's car is at this company's custody and they would transport the car to my address, I'd have 5days to check it and if all goes well I'd need to authorise this company to give my money to the seller. (first part of the deal is for me to send the car's price to Spectra Holding Ltd, and half of the shipping fee as well)

(sorry for fumbling with the replies:DD)

Hopefully you're not thinking of going thru with this! 

Surely you are able to see that this is a SCAM...a very old & common SCAM...there is NO car

...just a criminal waiting to take your money. 

Cease all communication.

Sea any suggestions?
