Scam Email
My car was advertised at carsales.com.au and I received a text message from Solomona. I am just wondering how scammers are able to use our telephone system in a way that we cannot reply to their messages. Just like an Optus Message Alert. This must be a big network of hackers and scammers. Please be aware.

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.
