I had a friend contact me about truck for sale, not mopar but classic Toyo.
Listed as not running, but it was in good shape by the pic.
My son tried to look up the vin, but it was supposedly too old to come up.
I’m not sure how he got to the site or what it was, but it was supposed to give him a report for 1$. He got no report and they tried to charge $30 to his card. Bank blocked it, but he had to cancel his card…etc.
So I’m guessing that maybe these bogus CL / FB / forum ads may be a ploy to lure us into these fake research sites. Pretty smart actually, knowing that car guys will try to look up the vin.
I’ve heard of similar scam ads on FB Charger groups.
Just wanted to warn people. Stay vigilant.
