Smells fishy to me.

Sounds like a scam. When I advertised my car (non minor) for sale in my local newspaper I was plagued by callers from various companies all suggesting that I should register with them as they had buyers lined up. The catch was that I had to pay them a feefor the privilege. To be honest grumpy grandad I wouldn't have given them the time of day. A genuine potential buyer wouldn't suggest that you could sell it for more That's the problem with posting your telephone number on the internet - anyone can get hold of it. Better to just ask interested parties to send you a pm with their phone number. Telesales companies are unlikely to go to the trouble of doing this.

Just noticed that you haven't posted your number on this site. Have you advertised it elsewhere?
