I first got a text message from this guy asking me to email him if we still had the product available because he could not receive text messages. I emailed him and the next message he said that he wanted the item and that he would post the money to my paypal account as long as I would send him $1500 to cover his moving fees and then he would reimburse me. Haha yeah right!! And posing as a soldier is another low because this guy sitting behind a computer trying to steal money from people does not even compare to a soldier!!
Follow Ups/Extra Information. Most recent is listed first.
This person contacted me in response to an ad I had placed on Craig's List. He offered to buy my item at the listed cost, but would need assistance having it shipped to him since he was a soldier and was deployed. He sent an email stating he had made the payment and I would be contacted by PayPal. I received several emails that appeared as if they were sent by PayPal; however, throughout the emails, there were several claims that this was a safe way to handle transactions and informed me I could not contact PayPal because they process so many transactions and would not be available to take my call. The emails instructed me to send $1500 via Western Union and once I received confirmation, I was to respond to the email with the confirmation number. At that time (and not before), I would see the payment for the item in my PayPal account. Yeah Right!! I responded to his email telling him I was born one day but it wasn't yesterday!

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.
