The same as everyone else, wanting to purchase my car which I advertised on Gumtree. Sent the same emails as everyone else recieved about being a marine biologist and unable to view the car, but a courier will pick up and until I decided to google his name had fallen for it. Thank goodness I did not pass on any information but my email and mobile number which are on the ad anyway. The old say if it\'s too good to be true it usually is. On the bright side I now have a pay pal account!! Seriously though apart from wasting my time no one will give away thier goods without recieving money first so what he is trying to achieve I do not know.

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.
