Vehiclesinspection Avis 

With in 10 mins of my ad being live on Autotrader I had an email asking to contact them via what’s app.
Same story as the rest of your i offered to do a green flag or rac cheaper check but wasn’t good enough.
I left the conversation if you feel the need to use this service feel free and i will deducted the check -price when you arrive tomorrow to view the car.

SCAM. As per previous comments, Lee said they would drive over 70 miles from Leicester and pick up and pay for the car today if we did this vehicle check, paid for it ourselves and then he would pay us on collection. Also asked is we wanted cash or bank transfer as payment for the car. All communication was via whatsapp with sob story about being caught out with an incorrect autotrader report previously in an attempt to persuade us to do this expensive check. It was the oddity of the conversation that made us check out the website before even clicking on the link.

Exactly the same scenario as other reviewers sent, I didn't fall for it thanks to coming here. Asked to contact via WhatsApp, asking pointed questions all good, wants to come and have a tests drive. Asked to run a check as he was cammed before, he's happy to add to car coat once everything comes clean. Sent a link this specific websites, I suggested running different cheaper check since it's my coat, but instsited on vehicles inspection.com. dodged a bullet

Silas T did his best! I’m so shocked auto trader doesn’t let you know about these scammers. Luckily I had an inkling he was a baddie so pushy for me to use this vehicle check. He also wanted my details for WhatsApp! Autotrader pull your finger out and get rid of these scammers

It is a scam! It scams the mechanic too!!!

It would appear I am the latest in a long line of suckers that fell for this one, and I spent years working in a heavily regulated financial industry!

I would suggest that anyone who clicked this link from a prospective “buyer” freezes or cancels the card they used to pay with.

Exactly the same as others , had contact via what’s app, went through expected questions, wasted loads of time, then asked for this specific report, sent link, followed by “don’t worry about the cost I’ll sort it out with you in the price of the car, its essential I have the report from here as I really trust the company”
Clicked the link and at £55 for a check you can get elsewhere for between £5-£10 was ridiculous. Plus autotrader do the basic checks in the price of the advert, Clearly a scam, read reviews, suspicions confirmed,
Don’t fall for it!!!
Need a zero or negative star review for this type of thing !!

I did a little digging, vehicle inspections uk was dissolved in 2024!!

Update , we went a little further and checked the ip address we were contacted from, yep “Josh” was based in Islamabad, once confronted and told we knew where he was, he blocked us immediately!!

Scam .: someone tried to buy my car and would only do so if I purchased a report from here .. clearly scamming company .. that’s what there doing now , contacting you via WhatsApp’s and asking to get one of these reports .. dodgy dodgy

SCAM, SCAM, SCAM. They go through the whole buying process before asking for the report from vehicleinspection.uk website which costs £54,99. They even send you the link to the website to make the payment. Excuse they give is that it’s essential for them to have the report before they buy the car. Do your homework and do not fall for their scam.

Listed a car on AutoTrader and within minutes received a call from someone posing as a buyer. They insisted I pay for a vehicle report specifically from vehicleinspections.uk before they would view the car. A genuine buyer would never ask the seller to pay for a check — they'd do it themselves. This site is flagged widely as a phishing scam. Do not enter your card details.

It's a scam website. DO NOT PAY. Scammers reach people who sell cars and didn't manage to sell for awhile and count on the fact that sellers are desperate. They will ask you for a car health check saying that they will pay for it and will force you to use this website or another one "carcheckpremium.com". It's just a scam and no one will come to see your car. If you actually check the website company address, details and company register number there is no match. Please report the user profile to facebook (if contactacted there) for scam immediately.

Scam, same experience as other reviews. Fake buyer said would come for car today but wanted me to pay £41 for inspection. Luckily checked on trust pilot.

Also scammer tried it on with this payment site. luckily i checked.

So glad I read the reviews, listed car on Autotrader and within 1 hour recieved a call from an alleged interested buyer. After a few whatsapps he wanted me to pay for this report, I found a similar site where the same information costs £5 as opposed to £41 that this site charged. I refused and low and behold he stopped messaging. Be aware all.

Listed a car on Auto trader and within minutes i received a phone call from a man who was willing to view/buy the car today. Then started hounding me on WhatApp to buy a vehicle inspection through the link he sent. When i refused he started giving me all the lies under the sun. Glad i checked on here. He has been blocked and i have reported to Autotrader.

SCAM

Facebook marketplace scammers getting you to pay for it before buying the car.

A woman texted me on Facebook Marketplace interested in my car. The she asked me for a Vehicle inspection and sent me the link to this webpage. It was weird since in Ireland there is an specific site for these kind of reports. Looked for it in trustpilot, and as I thought, it is a scam. The person who texted me goes under the name of Alice Clarke. I assume it's the same pareson as in previous comments, but changes to different fake profiles

I had similar experience. Initially person was happy to buy my car but she was insisting from me to buy vehicles inspection report. It was suspicious when she rejected when I offered to check my car at the local Mot station. Thanks to trustpilot.com I read one review and that confirmed my worries. Be aware of fake Facebook account Eleanor Daoming that is used to contact.

They are scammers.

They will text you asking for this specific report on a car you're selling, but they're not interested in the car.
