I was selling caravan on gumtree,got email from sarawilliam611@hotmail.com asking what firm price was,I emailed her back with price. I then receive email back. Thanks for mailing back Am ok with price but would be glad if you would state any issues with present condition and service history, I work with New Zealand oil and gas(nzog) and we are presently offshore in New Zealand Taranaki Basin on Kupe project. We do not have access to phone at moment due to bad mobile network and that's why I have contacted you with internet messaging facility regarding the payment.pls get back to me with your paypal details so I can process with payment,or I can pay you through my paypal direct bank deposit,using my paypal instant bank wire transfer service,all I need is your bank details. I have also contacted my courier who will come for pickup after the whole fund has been cleared into your account. Await your reply.

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.
