Contacted me about a pickup bed for sale I posted on Craigslist. Started by presenting himself as Tobby kay, an oceanographer that worked offshore, and texting was the only way of communication. I was told that I would receive a check, to cash said check, and send the remaining amount to the shippers via money gram or western union. I received the check, which was for the amount of $2480 dollars. The shipping label that came with the check was from Kane construction, from Wisconsin. The check was labeled from a credit union in Montgomery, Al. After I received the check, I did not cash it, though I said I did, and asked for the shipping company\'s address. All I got back was a name and town, Norman Hicklin, Houston Tx. Researched Kane construction, and was alerted by this site.

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.
