BEWARE OF THESE SCAMMERS!

One of our members who had advertised an AS badge for sale was contacted by someone named SMITH LODGE PAUL (slpaul7@gmail.com) who expressed interest in the item for sale and asked for additional photos. 

As the ad had only been advertised in the Southern Sphinx and on this webpage, It seemed legit so he was sent the extra photos. Our member got a reply which was extremely fishy – he wanted to pay with a certified cheque, use a courier to pick up the item and he was not willing to give an address or any contact info. In addition he also offered more money than the sellerI was asking for the item.

Our member did not proceed with the sale, went to Google for a search of the email address and up he came ...... what a con artist!

He mainly targets people selling cars and/or accessories, asks for additional info and pictures and then posts his own ad (typically on eBay or another similar website) using the pics and info which makes his (fake) ad look like the real deal. People pay him for an item he doesn’t have and he then closes his eBay or Paypal a/c or whatever and they never see their money again.

So here's a heads-up that he may use the photos and information of an AS badge to try to catch someone from the AS fraternity.

He now has a fellow scammer who uses lewistellfllol@gmail.com as his email address and who has requested extra photos of one of our cars for sale.

Armstrong Siddeley 1933 15 horsepower for sale

The engine and gearbox were reconditioned many years ago and soon after this the  car was taken off the road for other restoration work.

FOR SALE: 1950 Typhoon (C187109 / E187211)

This Typhoon is one of the last sixteen made, of which just four are known - another one in Australia and two in the UK. Robert Penn Bradly, I am sure, would explain the Typhoon's history much better than I. Penn has been very helpful in finding missing parts.

Condition of the Typhoon is BAD. Chassis requires welding in the normal places; sills need welding along with the body shell; original engine is in bits; spare block with car; preselect gearbox in one bit; back axle complete; roof removed from car; needs wood frame; doors complete; glass complete with some spares; dashboard with instruments; missing clock; good steering wheel; missing one front seat; front hubs removed from car; brakes complete but need work.

I would say the car is 90% complete but requires a lot of hard work by the new owner. Too many spare parts to list - three rear wings, four front wings, spare suspension and steering bits. A PDF file with photos of most of the items is available for perusal.

You will need a good car trailer and at least one tray-top ute plus two strong people to pick it all up. The car is in Western Australia.

My circumstances have changed over the last six months - hence the sale.

Any Typhoon is a rare car and this being one of just sixteen, even more so.

$1,000 (Firm).
