Place a classified advertisement on carsguide.com and got the following response, first received a text asking if vehicle was still for sale then the below email. Told them to get lost because it didn\'t sound right, then found this website-glad I didn\'t give them any paypal details which I believe would have been the next request.

\"Thanks for the prompt reply. My name is Lisa Manson. I believe my son sent you a text message to email me for the sale. I will like to know the lowest price for it and i want you to get back to me with more pictures and its current condition because i can\'t come over to inspect it. I am buying it locally here as a gift for my son that is studying in UAE(United Arab Emirates) for his great performance in his study.
I am at sea at the moment as i am an Oceanographer ( i work on South Pacific Ocean in east of New Zealand ) and due to the nature of my work, phone calls is restricted. It was my son that check your advert and sent you a text to contact me (his mother ) on my email address because i am currently offshore .I am really sure he will be more than happy if i am able to purchase it from you because this is what he want and chose from the Advert.
You need not worry yourself about how it will get to him there as i have a contact of shipping company that will be handling the pick up and all the paper work there they have branches almost all the country in the world and their headquater is at UAE(United Arab Emirate).I hope to read from you soon,
Regards

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.
