I was advertising a motor bike for sale on gumtree and received this below text message on my mobile phone from a strange number (+19372805032).

Is the bike still available for sale please get back to me with your asking price on goodyjamesme@gmail.com thanks waiting

I also received similar text messages like this from strange numbers asking me to e-mail them back. If they are that interested in what I’m selling they would phone and come around to look at it.

If there’s a strange number you can’t ring back on and they ask you to e-mail them back, it’s a scam.

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.
