Boatsandoutboards are full of these cons for outboards. Particularly the Indonesian ones. The tel numbers will either not work or be a wrong number which forces you into emailing and that's when you'll get similar stories. I've spoken to b&a about this and they can't get rid of the ads quickly enough.
