Extremely annoying when you come across ads while looking for your next one that misrepresent facts or are even fraudulent. Whether it’s inaccurate information, an unrealistic price, or potential fraud: With the "Report Advertisement" feature, you can notify us at any time so that we can investigate the ad and take appropriate action. And so we can protect other users.
What You Should Report
  • Misleading Information:

    If you come across an ad with inaccurate or misleading information about the condition, mileage, or features of the vehicle.

  • Suspect Pricing:

    Ads with unrealistic or suspiciously low prices (compared to the market price) should be reported.

  • Suspicion of Fraud:

    Any indication of fraudulent activities, such as requests for advance payments or suspicious communications from sellers, should be reported to us immediately.

How to Report an Advertisement
  • Simply click on the "Report Advertisement" link – on the desktop in the right column under the provider information, in the app at the very bottom, at the end of the ad.

  • Then provide the details: What is wrong? Is it the information about the vehicle, the provider, or something else? Did you notice it already in the ad or during the on-site inspection? Your information helps us to categorize the problem and respond more quickly.

  • Your report is generally anonymous! But if you would like to be informed about further processing, you can provide your email address or phone number.
