Dear All, A BTST Member, Dave, recently fell victim to possibly the World’s laziest “police” scammer… This pillar of the community decided to simply wander out of Police HQ in Liverpool and proceed to pick off Motorists like fish in a barrel right outside, from the pavement.

A few months ago I went to sell a car on Autotrader. I uploaded the photos, wrote the description, and selected all the options… Then, to my extreme irritation, I got this message: That’s right, unless you are prepared to send Autotrader (as well as whoever they share datawith) your passport and a picture of …
