If you email the seller through autotrader ect say on an advert like this http://vans.autotrader.co.uk/used-vans/ ... pe/minibus" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; (not sure how long this advert will be there, yet was £4200 yesterday, half its real value)
you will receive something like this : which will ask you to use google wallet saying you are protected with google wallet, yet google wallet is only available in USA at the moment and protection is only availabe for usa transactions:...
it goes something like this, as i was curious to find out :
SUPPOSED SELLER:
hi there ,
I'm glad to hear that you are interested to buy my Renault Trafic 47,000 Miles.
The van is in perfect condition, the bodywork is immaculate,no scratches, dents or hidden defects as well as the interior in excellent non-smoking condition , never been implied in any accident and it is as advertised. The van comes with full service history, HPI cleared, No finance.The only reason for selling this van so cheap is because I am involved in a military project and I will be deployed for 10 months to New Zealand to exchange experience.
I need to sell it fast before October 05 th so you can imagine that this is the only reason for selling it so low.
The price is same like on the advert £4.200 . The van is inside of Redford Cavalry Barracks, Scotland, UK in a military base garage, and in case it gets sold I will get it delivered. Let me know if you are interested, please email me back.
Regards!

Hi ,
I just reduce the price because i need to sell it fast.
As I've said in my previous email I am in Edinburgh , Scotland in a military base, getting ready for New Zealand ( for the first time so i am very excited ). I'm doing a special training program each day and I am not allowed to get out of the unit or give calls whenever I want. The delivery will take 2 to 3 days depending on your location and it's not a problem because I can do it at no cost for you. Because it is a large transaction, we will complete the deal only using an authorized third part like Google Wallet because I already prearranged the whole process with them, using their Google Safe Pay Solutions (bank-to-bank wire transfer) for vehicles.
The money will be sent to Google Wallet, before you will receive the vehicle. So, you will deposit the payment directly into the Google Wallet agent's bank account in United Kingdom, either online or at most banks and they will hold and secure your money during the entire transaction. I repeat, they will hold and insure your money until receipt of the vehicle in good condition and will release the funds to us only after you decide to keep the vehicle and you register it, into your name. You will have an inspection period of 10 days. In this time you can check, test and inspect the vehicle. If by any reason (the vehicle has any hidden damages or is not like I describe it) you can reject the deal. In this case Google Wallet will refund you totally and they will deliver the vehicle back.
You can read more about Google Wallet by searching this link in your browser :

Please let me know your delivery details (your full name, full address and home phone number) so I can open a transaction case with Google Wallet and declare you as buyer. They will contact you with further information regarding payment and delivery.
Regards,
Thomas Morrison
WELL I LEFT IT AT THIS AS IT WAS OBVIOUS
