Default camarotraderz

Anybody have any input on these guys? They list camaros for sale and then when you contact them, it turns out they are a "listing" service and want a non refundable 100$ fee to give you the contact info. I have no issue with a 100$ finders fee, but it seems as if the fee is non refundable even if the car is sold "before" you can complete the sale with the owner. At least, that is what the email they sent me says. Unless I am mistaken, this has scam written all over it!

I wouldn't touch that with a 10 foot pole...sounds like a way to throw out a hundred bucks.

Big Time SCAM. Jusr talked to the ACTUAL owner of the car that he "Listed". He was unaware of the ad by this guy. The scary part is that the guy at camaro traderz used the word clone, and it turns out that the car is a real x33 car.
The REAL owner has no agreement or knowledge of camaro traderz, so if you paypal this guys 100$, then you would lose the money if the car is SOLD!
Wonder how many times he could collect 100$ "FEE" on a sold car?

When I listed my Z11 on ebay, this same guy kept emailing me asking to put my car on the website you're talking about. Saw that one coming, especially when his emails would always start with "Is the car still for sale?" Well, buddy if you were interested in my CAMARO you would at least know to put the word CAMARO in your scam email. Totally pathetic.

who would pay $100 Bucks?? is that per car listing?? the internet has so much good to it and then these scammers leave you with a Bad taste. pretty outrageous. Maybe if they cahrged $10 bucks a month and you got unlimited access?? people might fall for that.
