Bogus Naija Car Finder Email Warning!

Don't give your personal details out over email.

That’s the message from Naija Car Finder, after reports of customers receiving emails asking to confirm or supply credit card details.

We have also received reports of cars advertised with unusually low sale prices. These emails provide detailed information on the vehicle, which is often located abroad, and pressure the buyer into making a payment to secure the car for a viewing.

Please note, Naija Car Finder does not offer a facility to verify transactions or pass on information between buyers and sellers. Naija Car Finder will not act as an intermediary or arrange or confirm shipping arrangements.

If you receive an email claiming to do this, please forward it to our Customer Services team at scamalert@naijacarfinder.com

Buy safe

Naija Car Finder also reminds users we don’t endorse adverts or sell vehicles directly.

We constantly search for fraudulent adverts on the site, which are removed and passed to the police for further investigation.

On some occasions, fraudulent sellers may pressure buyers into parting with money before seeing the vehicle.

It is essential for you to trust the seller – and be sure the car is genuine – before parting with any money, even a small deposit.
