Spotting a false advert

It's quite simple: Benzin doesn't post any ads on Leboncoin!

And with good reason: our customer base doesn't require us to communicate on other platforms.

So bear in mind that anyone posing as Benzin on Leboncoin is bound to be suspect.

A few tips to help you avoid falling for it

Everything happens on Benzin.fr. In the event of a victory, the bank details of your escrow account, into which the funds are to be paid, are only available on the advert for your new vehicle.

We do not send out any sales contract, as the transfer is made directly to the seller from whom you have just purchased a vehicle.

In addition, most of our communications are by e-mail or via the site's secure messaging system. If you have any doubts, do not hesitate to contact us directly via this secure area and ask us for any supporting documents that may be required for your bank to make the transfer.

How do I report a false ad?

Please report any suspicious activity to us as soon as possible and, of course, report the advert on Leboncoin.

Why buy from Benzin?

As well as having access to a wide range of listings from all over Europe, we carry out the following checks on sellers:

• Identity documents for individuals.
• Company documents for professionals (articles of association and K-Bis).
• Surname / First name / Telephone / E-mail / Address.
• Escrow payment system: the seller is not paid until the vehicle is collected.

Now you're armed to fight cybercriminals.

In the meantime, if you don't want to be bothered, the best solution is always to use our services.
