We listed our RV on RVTrader.com and a day later I got a message from someone saying they were interested. Then they said how they sold their RV on trailerviewer.com after not having any luck on RVTrader.com. Of course, it was a scam.

Red flag: their mobile site has no way to filter by location, which is an essential feature.

Yellow flag: the domain name has only been live since 2023

Yellow flag: In their messaging, they were too excited about trailerviewer.com

Red flag: the Better Business Bureau has several people complaining about the scam, mentioning almost the exact same text that I received.

My text messages:

Lee: Hi, this is Lee with the 2021 Keystone bullet. Yes, we are available this weekend to show it! I can call you after 2:30 today. Chat soon.

276-290-2568?: Yes, I remember, thank you for getting back to me! I was helping my sister and brother-in-law find one for their family. They reached back out this morning and told me they put a deposit down on one closer to home. My husband and I had a Bullet, but we recently sold it because we decided to go full-timing so we got a motorhome. You may want to look into www.TrailerViewer.com that’s where we sold ours after our friends referred us. We tried RV Trader for a few months with no luck.

Lee: Thanks very much and all the best on your trails

276-290-2568?: Of course, and thank you so much!! Let me know how it goes, we had a deposit 3 days after listing last week. It was a night and day difference. We were beginning to worry we’d have it another season. Hope you’re enjoying this nice weather!! :)

Lee: Here’s a crazy thought, is trailerviewer.com a scam?

276-290-2568?: [no response]
