Red flags observed

  • The listing advertises a 2022 Kubota SVL75-2 with 717 hours, enclosed cab, two-speed travel and a 75 inch Land Pride bucket for $13,000.
  • The domain registration date is 2026-09-01, making the registration very recent relative to the report.
  • The domain registrant record is protected by a privacy service, so registrant contact details are not published in WHOIS.
  • The operator publishes a street address and phone number but no email address, and no dealer licensing or carrier registration appears on the listing pages.

What to do if you have paid

Contact your bank immediately to report the transfer and ask whether a recall or reversal is possible. Preserve all records of the transaction, including listing screenshots, payment receipts and any correspondence. File a complaint with local law enforcement and with online fraud complaint services appropriate to your country.

How to verify this yourself

Check the domain WHOIS and registration date on a public WHOIS lookup. Confirm the seller s published phone number by calling and request written proof of ownership and a bill of sale. Verify serial and engine numbers directly with the manufacturer or an authorized dealer before sending payment. Search for dealer licensing, business registration or carrier numbers on state or national registries and confirm any claimed physical address in independent public records.
