Is it possible to securely buy a car from overseas to be shipped to the uk using apple pay?

It's a scam.

Scam all the way.

Absolutely a scam.

I know someone in the U.S. who tried to sell a car online. He was told a sailor would be landing shortly and would like to send a money order to secure the car. This was a documented scam here. Undoubtedly personal information (e.g., bank account number) would have been asked for.

But the biggest giveaway here is that Apple Pay is not yet available in the UK (or in Spain)!

hai vynne

I am also travelling through the same procedure , hopefully the same car.same person they ask me to pay through apple pay.

so it seems fraud . they send invoices to my mail. I don't think it is a trustworthy site. they had only online chat no phone numbers or contact address

. so I think need to be carefull

hi, I have looked at the same, was it a Audi a4 Avant from Mr jones peter in Seville. the bank they want you to use is not on Apple nominated bank list although the bank does exist. the invoice look legit but when you call the number is a foreign spoken man with little knowledge. since my last email to mr jones peter I have no replies, although he was very responsive before.

any help would be greatly appreciated

It is a fraud, as indicated in your other post.

how can they get away with it using a company like apple?

The same as them using Western Union for money transfers for these lottery schemes. It doesn't have to do with the company they are trying to use for the money transfer, it has to do with what you are willing to share with them so they can access funds. Any information you are willing to provide them just makes their job easier. Do not write, call or do anything else regarding this transaction. It is all fake.

That is what the Delete button is for, isn't it?

I have told the guy doing this scam I have notified the authorities, which I have done and the help line etc has gone.
