Something doesn't ring true with this. It's being sold with the courses but they were used up by the first buyer. Maybe they have purchased new ones for the next owner. Unusual though

It says Oldham as the location. I believe that the winning bidders of the macrib were from Yorkshire so yes it looks like a scam.

They must get a few people who pay....

Scary how easy it is to create a dummy advert
