Was contacted by text msg from the number given in response to a Gumtree ad to sell an old car. The msg asked for details already in the ad and then said to \"email only can\'t reply sms\"

Various emails later with the address and licence no given, followed by the sob story about the pick up agent with the HQ in China and payment through Western Union prompts me to report it here.

It just did not feel right from the very first contact, so we were very careful not to give out any bank a/c details or other info that could be used. Don\'t get taken in this is a scam for sure.

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.
