I checked to see if my add for my 2000 RT-10 was still posted when low and behold there was my car in the add just above mine! I dont know if formula40 is actually selling a car but he definitely is using the pics that I posted. What do I do now? Mike

I feel sorry for you THATS just WRONG! Did it say "SIMILIAR TO PHOTO?"

Just 2 days ago, BAD68GTO posted a fraudulent ad elsewhere with my name and my phone number, and a ridiculous low price and glorious details for a non-existant GTS.

Im sure the mods here will help....

:alert::cop: Checking on it now.

Looks like a case of being too lazy to take your own own pictures so he copied someone whose car matched his. Different price, diffferent mileage, different vin. I removed your pics and told him he was free to post his own pics.
