SCAM adverts in the CC Classified adverts

Like no doubt quite a lot of other people do, I quite regularly take a look at what is for sale in the Club's Classified adverts and am amazed how often there are blatant SCAM adverts.

As fraud and deception are so widespread, surely shouldn't the Club do something about monitoring these adverts.  Only a few minutes ago I took a look at what motorhomes are for sale and came across 2 adverts both for exactly the same price of £6,400, one being for a 2006 BESSACARR E765 6 Berth with only 14,000 miles on the clock and the other for a 2010 Auto-Trail 4 birth with only 4,000 miles on it.

Both of these adverts are approx. £10,000 under book and are obviously SPAM's.

I actually enquired about 2 adverts a couple of months ago and both enquiries resulted in the Club advising me that they suspected the adverts were indeed SPAM's.

So why not filter these adverts before theya re posted ?
