My father wants to buy a car that is advertised on olx. The car is sold by a auction company, ie bank reposesed cars. They want a 30% deposit then they will deliver the car. Firstly does that sound legit?
Before my father pays I would like to make sure the account number at Capitec bank is that of the company and not that of a possible scammer. Olx does not show how long ago a user registered, like on gumtree. The possibility that he is only on olx for a few days is therefore possible. I just do not want my father to lose his money. Unfortunately he thinks now with his heart and not his head. Why can they just not accept that he will eft the full amount the same day the car is delivered? I smell a rat.
