So called "Shane Jeremy" responded to a classified ad we placed via the internet in our local paper. His response was thus:
Great reading from you, Your asking price was perfect... I would have loved to come for inspection personally and pay cash but, due to nature of my job i will not be able to come for inspection, am a very busy type as i work long hours everyday on a remote island for the next few Months, But i have gone through your advertisement and i am happy to complete the sales with you.
To start with, I have a private courier that will come for the pick up after the payment have been made. Please send me your address so that my pick up courier can figure it out and come for the pick up and other necessary things after the payment have been made.
As for the payment, i will be paying you via the fastest and secure way to pay online(PayPal). You can get the setup registration www.PayPal.com.au And i will only need your PayPal email address and name to proceed with the payment... Or You can alternatively send your full name bsb and account number if you have no PayPal account.
Thanks !!

As you can see the language is unnatural, and we avoided giving him our bank details. We ended up being firm as we were not aware it was a scam, but suspected this. After this he left us alone.

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.
