Swindle or not ?

[Sandrine]

I am french so I am sorry if I don't write very well in your language.
My husband saw a car in a web site "autoscout" with an interesting price. The seller is in UK and use a shipping company to send us the car. We had to pay 50 % (2400 euros) using western union. Then the shipping company had to send us the car. We had 30 days to inspect it. If we wanted to keep the car, we had to send the remainding of the sum. My husband payed 50 % and now the shipping company is saying to us that there is a problem because the car is registered in France. So we can to send the total amount before to receive the car.
This company has a web site : http://www.mobiletransit-international.com
Since 4 days, it's impossible to go on this site ! We have sent a mail to the shipping company and have wroten that we have no guarantee if we send the money. They say to us that their site is into construction, so it's normal. There is no problem.
Do you know this site ? Do you think that it is a swindle ?
Thank you for your answer.

Bonjour Sandrine,

Pour expliquer un peu le processus de l'arnaque:
Le "vendeur" et la "compagnie de transport" font partie de la même organisation de criminelles.
Je suppose que vous leur avez envoyé le borderau de versement de WU par mail.

Dès que ces arnaqueurs connaissent le nom d' expédiant , le numéro MTCN et le montant
ils peuvent retirer l'argent et vous ne verrez ni la couleur de la voiture ni de l'argent.
Même si l'argent n'est plus récupérable, vous devrez porter plainte auprès du Procureur de la République.
Je suis désolée pour vous. En cas de fautes prier de les excuser, je suis Allemande.
Avec ce genre de fraude il y a beaucoup de victimes aussi en France


Resumed Traduction,

I explained the process of the fraud: and I supposed that they sent the scanned MTCN to the gangsters. The funds transferred by WU are forever lost and the car will never arrive.
Even if the money is gone they should go to the police. In FRance there are also a lot of victims.

Bonjour Sandrine,

La voiture n'existe pas , le vendeur n'existe pas, la compagnie de transport n'existe que sous forme d'un site web. Le vendeur et la compagnie de transport sont identiques, sinon l'arnaque ne fonctionnerait pas
Les papiers du véhicule sont copiés.

Vous avez perdu pas mal d'argent .L'arnaque se passe toujours de la même facon telle que vous la décrivez. Stoppez le contact pour ne pas perdre tout votre argent. Adressez-vous à la police

Hello Sandrine,

The car does not exist, the salesman does not exist, the company of transport exists only in the form of a Web site. The salesman and the company of transport are identical, if not, swindles would not function. Papers of the vehicle are copied.

You lost not badly money. Swindles always does in the same way such as you describe it. Stop the contact not to lose all your money. You should address to the police force. See also:
