Anyone used or heard of the selleo trading group?

Relax

I have seen a car on gumtree and the seller wants to use a 3rd party intermediary seller called Sellio trading group.
Has anyone any experience with them?
They are based in Aberdeen.

Scam - just buy a car normally.

Dont even need to look at the link.

It means they are a trader trying to disguise themselves as private

Not sure how they have positive feedback already ?

And loads of Americanism in the text which suggests an not fully edited template website

Why the different spelling in the 2 threads? (Selleo / Sellio)

oh.. I started this as it seemed easier than trying to get the other one that drew no response moved.

The spelling is probably because I am typing this from the phone

thanks for the replies.. the guy messaged me at about 8 this morning telling me he had sold it to a better offer.

Relax

Right then ~ Back on a laptop ~ Fixed that misspelling ~ Hopefully, if anyone does a search they will find this thread

A bit of background The item was a car on gumtree and undervalued by about 40%.

The story now seems a bit implausible as the guy said it was being sold off as part of the inheritance from his brother's death and he lived overseas he gave me a swiss phone number.

He said he was using the company I linked to as they would handle delivery and collect payment for him.

My scamdar was warning me when I couldn't search the company ~ I got some reviews but no web site ~ He eventually sent me a link.

I even registered on the site and this morning he sent me an email saying he had already sold the item as he was offered more.

I can only think that because I offered my condolences for the loss of his brother he felt I didn't deserve to be the victim?

It would have been interesting to see how he wanted payment taken ~ But I am kind of glad I never got to find out.

Thank you all for helping out on this ~ I get the feeling Doam is probably thinking I am spamming this site. I can assure you I was close to falling for this ~ Oddly enough when I searched google for Seleo Trading Group my question on MSE was on top ~ If my question remains around long enough to help someone else from falling for this I will feel I have passed forward my good fortune.
Thanks again ~ I owe you all one
