Xxxxx common room
This is what I advertised on craigslist and gumtree Singapore.
She responded to rent my room. Ask for pics if my room which I sent!!
She asked to pay me ASAP by PayPal and link me to a fake website. I told her I don\'t have PayPal. She must pay into my local bank which she emailed instantly that she can do it and ask for my account number, swift code etc. I asked when she\'s arriving, tenure of lease, university admission letter and passport extension as her passport shows 2 mths to expiry. Sense smething amiss as she didn\'t view the room and wanted to pay deposit & rental
ASAP!

Her email dvdlnll@gmail.com.
Now she\'s got my pics I\'m afraid she\'ll use it to scam others!!

This is what she emailed-
I am satisfied with the cost and am willing to pay for it via paypal
to send me your paypal information for me to make the payment or go to
www.paypal.com to create a free PayPal account if you do not have
PayPal account already.

Send me the total amount to pay now. (rent + deposit)
Kind Regards,
Thi.

Hello,
Thanks for getting back to me. I am a simple, cool and non-smoker
lady. I am willing to rent the unit as I am at sea at the moment as i
am a Coastguard Agency employee in USA but i was Born and brought up
in Melbourne, Australia. I am coming to study and I will work
part-time down there but due to the nature of my work, phone calls
making and visiting of website are restricted. I only squeezed out
time to check this advert and send you an email regarding this. i am
ready to rent it asap so tell me how much is the rent/share per month
and how much deposit do i have to pay. Please send me more period you
wish to rent this out, I have attached my ID Passport with this email

Since you’re here …
we have a small favour to ask. More people are visting Scamdex and Scamalot than ever but advertising revenues are falling fast and we have no 'product' to sell. And unlike many informational websites, we haven’t put up a paywall or membership barrier – we want to keep our site as open as we can. So you can see why we need to ask for your help. Scamdex/Scamalot websites takes a lot of time, money and hard work to keep running. We do this because we hate to see our fellow humans getting scammed out of their hard-earned money by low-lives.
