An unusual one

It sounds odd, but I suppose it is possibly true, but then again scams are getting increasingly niche!

As others have said, probably best to avoid and consider contacting ITV.

Is there a reason you didn’t contact ITV?

I’ve just googled it, yes ITV and other channels have an archive service where you can buy old programmes, one person was quoted £150 for a single episode of something.

I still wouldn’t buy them from him though. If he wanted them and has paid why not let you watch for free.

I’ve heard of scams , but this one takes the biscuit !!!

This is undoubtedly a scam. Run for the hills!

I am suspicious as I doubt I'd want to fork out such a huge sum for six episodes of a 43 year old sitcom, and I doubt ITV would sell to an individual.

ITV will know if it is a scam, and if it is not a scam, they will be able to sell it to the poster, all above board. Also, if one of the workers in their vaults is selling pirated copies of it, they will be pleased to know that.

Why not just contact ITV yourself? They should know this is going on if it is a scam.

This is undoubtedly a scam. Run for the hills!

I have no experience of this but if in doubt give it a very wide berth. Personal information, such as email and home addresses are best shared with people you know personally.
