Placed a truck for sale on Kijiji, this guy responses that he wants to buy it for his parenting in Ont. Will give us asking plus $800 if we hold it for him. He can \"only pay\" through paypal, and will transfer the money plus pay for the fee. Then we are told that the driving company he is using has to receive $800 via Western Union or Money Gram, and he can\'t make that arrangement so he will add that to the money transfer too. I contacted paypal and they do not hold funds waiting for their competition\'s money transfer number (MTN) before they will release your cash. This set of crooks can be very aggressive and threatening so please be careful.

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.
