Jaguar wheel scam

Has anybody done business with a George P. aka Classic_Cats or Super_Cats? Especially in purchasing wheels that come from Portugal.

never even heard of him. Is Classic_cats his username? Why would wheels be in portugal? What kind of wheels are they supposed to be?

What is the desired method of payment?

Classic_Cats was his ebay sellers name and he is located in the UK. The wheels are 16" 5 spoke 1994 xjs wheels. He claimed he had to send the wheels to Portugal to be refurbished

Umm... why would anyone need to send wheels from the UK to Portugal to be refurbished? I'm quite confident that there are plenty of reliable and high quality wheel-repair shops in the UK. Also, the price to ship those wheels to Portugal and then to the US most likely far outweighs their value.

Also, I just checked eBay and it says that Classic_Cats is no longer a registered seller. Hmm..

This screams scam to me. Sorry.
