Follow Ups/Extra Information. Most recent is listed first.
I only just listed my car on Gumtree late lastnight and received a text message with a name 'DavEd' - normally a text from an unknown person just comes up with a phone number. He said it was easiest to reply in email to davidedmond03@hotmail.com.
"Hi thanks for the mail,am ok with the price and the condition,am buying it for my holiday,because i'll be coming soon from our rig as am a marine biologist working offshore,i won't be able to come for the inspection due to the nature of my work,i would have love to call in person but we have limited access to calls due to bad weather condition. i will be paying you through PayPal,pls get back to me with your PayPal details so i can proceed with the payment and contact the courier agent who will come to pick it up and deliver it to my place prior my arrival. Await your reply."

Sent message to my phone and name came up instead of number, 1st sign of something fishy. In sms:- "I would like to know the present condition and firm price for your listing. easier to contact me on : davidedmond03@hotmail.com". I have written on my advert overall conditions and firm price. Tosser I googled his email and found scam reports, so followed through with an abusive response

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.
