Scam 1988 535is in Nashville

Post by fred633 »

Watch out of Alec Turc. He is a scammer and trying to scam people with an 88 535is for sale. If he even has the car it is TMU (True Miles Unknown) but he claims 118k miles. The car had that mileage 20+ years ago. The pictures he used I found online from 2016 when the car was in FL. I also show the VIN he gave me listed for another car for sale in Brooklyn NY. You need to watch out for him.

Here is the listing for the car he is trying to scam people with.

Yeah I inquired about a few things on it, seems sketchy. Car doesn’t run after breaking down the motor to rebuild, I inquired about it and he seems way in over his head. Buyers be warned. The car is real though, I passed by it in the area, but yeah, I think he’s dumping his problem off and trying to recoup his losses.

Just my .02

This is actually hilarious. I assure you the car was real lol. Head work was in fact done by head works in Nashville, all I did was assembly and disassembly. After reassembly I lost spark. From there Wursters I’m Franklin TN handled the diag. Soon after that the TO bearing started going out which current owner was made very aware of before purchase.

Don’t believe everything you read on the internet kids, I do not scam people lol. Also I don’t get “in over my head”

I doubt the guy's name is actually "fred633" unless his dad owns twitter
