Close call
Had a message randomly on Facebook telling me "For that price and lovely van, your van will sell easily on Life with a van" - Thought it was a bit strange so done some research, glad i hesitated before posting it and paying for my ad to even be listed!

Fraud
I, too, stupidly suffered the same experience as most of your Reviewers. I was contacted by an anonymous text suggesting that I advertise on this site. As soon as the listing went live I was contacted by several supposed interested potential buyers, all of whom wanted a Vehicle Check Report from a particular site, which I eventually did, costing £39,99 for the basic report, taking this money from my account promising a report to follow. No report ever followed.
A company called Metaswift appeared on my bank statement as the recipient. A friend had the same experience, and two men arrived, distracted him, then had a test drive with him driving (??) ended with smoke belching from exhaust and bonnet, with engine compartment covered in black oil. He was so distraught that he agreed to receive just a minimal sum for scrap. They took his car away, and low and behold, re-taxed the very next day. Everyone I spoke to new of this scam except my friend and I!!! I'm told the scam involves them squirting old oil up the cold exhaust, into the coolant reservoir and all over the engine compartment.
SELLER BEWARE!!!

Hi,
We’re really sorry to hear about your experience – that sounds incredibly frustrating and upsetting.
We want to make it absolutely clear that we have no involvement whatsoever with these scams or the individuals contacting sellers. Unfortunately, like many online marketplaces, there are people who attempt to target sellers by posing as buyers and directing them to third-party “vehicle check” websites or arranging suspicious viewings. These are well-known scams across multiple platforms, not just ours.
We would never ask or require sellers to purchase any kind of report through a specific website, and any buyer requesting this should be treated as suspicious. We always advise sellers to avoid making payments to third-party sites suggested by unknown buyers and to report any suspicious activity to us immediately so we can take action.
We’re actively working to monitor and reduce this kind of behaviour on the platform, and reports like yours genuinely help us do that. We’d also strongly recommend reporting the incident to your bank and to Action Fraud, as they may be able to investigate further.
Again, we’re really sorry this happened to you and your friend, and we appreciate you raising awareness so others can stay vigilant.

Hi Dee,
Thanks for your feedback.
From time to time we reach out to people who have advertised their campervan or motorhome on other marketplaces to let them know there are additional places they can promote their vehicle. Many sellers appreciate the suggestion as it helps them reach more potential buyers.
Listing on Life With A Van simply gives sellers another platform where thousands of campervan buyers are actively searching. As with any marketplace, the number of views and enquiries can vary depending on factors such as the vehicle, price, photos and current demand.
Many vehicles listed on the site receive strong interest and sell successfully, though of course results can differ from listing to listing.
We’re sorry to hear it didn’t work out for you this time, but we do appreciate you giving the platform a try and wish you the best with your sale.
WARNING to others
We fell for the text after putting van on Gumtree suggesting we advertise on this site.
Since then we’ve had numerous enquires all showing interest and then asking for vehicle report to be bought by us at our cost and sent to them they send a link to these ‘sites’ Please DO NOT, fall for it appears a lot of these vehicle check sites aren’t genuine, double & triple check before doing anything on these vehicle check sites

Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear about your experience, however the situation you’ve described is unfortunately a common scam that occurs across many online marketplaces, including Gumtree, Facebook Marketplace, eBay and others.
These messages are not sent by us or through our platform, and we have no involvement in those third-party “vehicle report” websites. Scammers often target people who have advertised vehicles online and attempt to move conversations off the original platform, which is exactly what appears to have happened here.
We would never ask sellers to purchase vehicle reports or send links to external services, and any requests like this should be treated as suspicious.
We work hard to maintain a genuine marketplace and encourage users to remain cautious of unsolicited messages from unknown buyers. Given that this activity was carried out by unrelated third parties and not our platform, we would kindly ask that you reconsider the review, as it does not reflect the service we provide.

I feel I have been scammed
I feel I have been scammed. I received an SMS shortly after listing my camper from someone pretending to be a contact. The van community means that I do have random contacts out there who would send me this type of message.
As I was looking for a quick sale, I explored the option and decided to give it a try. The listing attracted less than a third of the footfall of the market leaders and didn't generate a single lead.
I did get a successful sale through Autotrader- don't waste your money on these guys.
Terrible underhanded sales tactics from these guys. I wish I had read the reviews beforehand. Avoid.

We’re sorry to hear you didn’t get the result you hoped for. We’re a genuine marketplace for campervans and every listing goes live on our site for buyers to see. Sometimes interest depends on the type of camper, pricing, and demand at the time, and while many sellers do get leads, it can take longer for some campervans to attract attention.
We understand your frustration and don’t want you to feel out of pocket. Please contact us directly at contact@lifewithavan.com so we can review your case and arrange a refund.

We sometimes use direct messaging to potential buyers and sellers as part of our marketing, but they’re never intended to mislead. All our ads are genuine, and we only ever direct people to our official site where listings are live for buyers to see. We understand direct messages are not for everyone and respect your choice, but we’re proud to be a marketplace helping private campervan sellers connect with buyers.
Another fake message on FB Marketplace
So i ALSO have just received a DM on my facebook market place advert saying - 'Id recommend putting this up on lifewithavan.com, to be honest if this isnt on there for that price it should be an easy sell' This is exactly the same message otheres have been getting according the reviews, so with that type of cold caller marketing i would leave this well alone!

Thanks for your feedback. We sometimes reach out directly to sellers on platforms like Facebook to let them know about our site, it’s one of the ways we grow awareness as a newer marketplace. The message you received was genuine, not a scam, and the only aim is to highlight another place to advertise to get more exposure for your advert.
We understand that not everyone appreciates direct marketing, and we’ll take your comments on board as we refine how we reach out. What matters most is that we’re a real marketplace, and listings on our site are visible to genuine buyers every day.

Contacted via eBay listing "suggesting" listing with them. Touting for listings does not hold much confidence that you would "definitely" sell with them as suggested

We sometimes reach out to sellers on platforms like eBay to let them know about Life With A Van, as we’re still growing and many people haven’t heard of us yet. Our messages are an invitation to consider an alternative place to advertise, not a guarantee of a sale. While no marketplace can promise a “definite” sale, our aim is to give sellers more visibility and another route to potential buyers.

Hi, thanks for your feedback. Some of our affiliates reach out to campervan sellers to let them know about the platform. It’s not meant to be pushy, just a heads-up that there’s another option for getting your campervan sold. We understand it’s not for everyone and appreciate you sharing your thoughts so we can continue improving.

Thanks for your feedback. I’m sorry to hear you didn’t get the results you were hoping for. While some sellers find buyers quickly, it can take longer depending on factors like price, listing quality, and market demand.
lifewithavan.com is a dedicated campervan marketplace, and we continuously work on attracting the right audience. If you’d like, I can review your listing and offer suggestions to improve visibility. Also, we’re always open to feedback, so if there’s anything we can do to improve the platform for sellers like yourself, let us know.

Thanks for your feedback. Some of our affiliates occasionally reach out to campervan sellers to let them know about the platform. The intention is simply to offer an alternative place to sell, never to pressure or annoy. That said, we understand not everyone appreciates this approach and we’re reviewing how outreach is handled to ensure it’s done respectfully.

Mithering company messaging you when you advertise a campervan elsewhere, trying to get you to advertise on there page..
Unsolicited business contact is illegal but these don't care.
They will probably reply with some waffle like "we’re passionate about connecting buyers and sellers in the campervan community, and sometimes our affiliates may reach out to make people aware of our platform"
But they're well aware of it happening and actively encourage it so are ultimately responsible.

Selling my van on Ebay got a message by someone saying advertise on this site and I will sell my van. No mention of cost so I thought it was free. After going to all the trouble to write advert it said £19.99 for one week or more for 2 weeks etc. EBay is £19.99 for one month! I think I was misled thinking it was a seller helping me. I didn't go ahead after reading other reviews. Facebook is free and Ebay is sound especially with classified ad package.

Thank you, Clive! We really appreciate your review and your commitment to helping us create the best possible marketplace for campervans. We'll definitely take your feedback to heart. We agree that platforms like eBay and Facebook are popular choices for selling, but we also recognize that individual sellers can sometimes struggle to compete with businesses selling in bulk. That's precisely why we developed our marketplace—to ensure every seller has a fair chance to get their campervans seen and sold.
