Posted an item on las cruces craigslist (http://lascruces.en.craigslist.org/) and hollomanyardsales.com (bookoo)(http://www.hollomanyardsales.com). Received a text asking if I still had the item. Then received a text stating he/her wanted to buy and send a pick-up agent as soon as I send an email associated with my paypal account so they could set up a cash transfer. Said if I didn\'t have paypal it was easy to set up; and sent me a link, wanted it done asap because it was for his/her sons graduation gift (who graduates in October?). I replied “I don’t have paypal” . Also wanted recent pics. I replied; pics were taken yesterday. Got 6 texts one after the other all at one time. Sounded too odd to me, someone wanting to buy from Wisconsin (area code) and didn\'t want to ask anything about it or see it in person.

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.
