I'm currently looking for a new tractor so I'm spending time each day on Ebay/Autotrader/ Gumtree etc.
It is now common to see modified adverts on Gumtree for tractors originally advertised on other sites. The price will be substantially less and the location will be different (Ipswich/London etc). I've responded to several just to see how they react. I've offered to come and view within 48 hours - no further contact.
Presumably they will ask for a deposit to secure the machine = then disappear.
Police are not interested - they say there are too many to investigate.
Good luck
