Started receiving multiple calls and text after posting an ad on AutoTrader.com. It appears that the telemarketers and scam artists are targeting online sellers by combing sites like Craigslist and AutoTrader for victims. List of the calls we received below…
(855) 844-2646, 2647 and 2648 (OnceDriven.com)
(469) 654-7633 (paulwaym101@hotmail.com)
(702) 567-8866 Cory @ One Stop Motors in Vegas
(714) 703-6474 Auto Insurance Placement Center | http://whocalled.us/lookup/7147036474
FWIW we removed the ad and are still receiving calls. Additional links that might be of interest below…

Message Transcript: Hi, My name is Michael and I work for Once Driven. The number here is (855) 844-2646.

Id like to find out more about it and, um, tell you little bit more about what we can do to help you get it sold. Uh, theres a small fee for the service. Its well worth it. Ill tell you about it when you call. We do guarantee the results. So give me a call before 5 today. Uh, the number is (855) 844-2646. Have a great day.
Service to sell a car for you.
I advertised a car for sale on craigslist.org and began receiving these calls several times a week. Each time the caller ID showed "Unknown number". If I answered, there was dead air, no connection. If I did not answer, I got a voicemail from "Kevin" at "Once Driven" about "my vehicle" and an offer to find me a buyer in exchange for a fee. I had expressly stated on craigslist.org that I DID NOT wish to be contacted by third-party businesses, only interested buyers. I actually sold my car and stopped posting on craigslist.org over two weeks ago, but I continue to receive dead air calls and voicemails from "Once Driven". This is especially frustrating because of the dead air when I answer, there is no actual person to tell that I sold my car, and they need to stop calling me.
