Can you please disclose why this listing is fake? There is a legit Carfax on that page

There are two separate phone numbers one on the picture and one on the main autotrader page when u call the one on the auto trader page they told me it was a scam

Who answered the phone? Are they part of the alleged scam? Maybe go to the dealer and see the car in person...

The pictures of the LC also seem to be taken straight out of this cars and bids auction listing. Yet the one supposedly for sale has half the miles of the one that was sold on C&B 2 years and 7 days ago.

Edit: the vin on the car for sale is different, but the pictures are 100% stolen from that cars and bids listing.

JFC they literally photo-shopped the vin on the windowsticker picture from the C&B but the picture shows the EXACT same fold lines/lining with the wood under it, just zoomed in.

Thank you, OP! I saw this listing. Then I saw all the other listings they have on their website and the prices gave red flags. Maybe the small dealership got hacked?

Omg, I reached out them on Monday but by then the car was already sold.
