On Oct.06 2013 I\'ve posted a car ad for sale on Autotrader.com.
The following day, I\'ve got a text message from sherryc@gmail.com - saying that she would only respond to e-mail.
She was wondering if a car is still for sale and needed more information.
Then, she wanted to purchase a car.
This kind of text message seemed suspicious.
For starters, she didn\'t give me a description of advertised vehicle.
Second, there was no questions about an advertised vehicle.
Finally, she wanted to purchase a vehicle without knowing any thing about it.
When I Googled her e-mail address, I came across Scamdex tip off report service, where I\'ve red similar scams. This gave me a reassurance that this would be a scam.
Thanks to Scamdex and many consciences people, I\'m not the victim of this scam.

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.
