My lunchtime hobby is watching listings of Austin Healey's. I own a 61 BT7. The scams started out with one every other week or so but now it is up to about 4 per week. Today, one was listed and the stolen ID person caught it and cancelled that listing and within two hours, the same car (pictures) showed up under another seller (stolen) ID. Wednesday, a car was listed using pictures of the same car that successfully sold about four days earlier. They use the same stunts, starting prices of $100 or less (for a 30K car) "buy it now" in the listing for 3K to 6K on that same car. No real BUY-IT_NOW button link. Contact address is in the body of the listing, different than stolen seller's ID. Addresses are usually the freebee sites, Yahoo, earthlink, etc.
