| Anonymous Somewhere in Australia 2014-10-11 06:57:49 Classified Ads Scam Gumtree | +1 Buyer from gumtree wanted my PayPal or BSB numbers ! Kaths wanted to purchase a dining suite I had on gumtree , said she was offshore on the Kapo project NZ and could I give her my pay pal account number or BSB and Acc. Number so she could transfer the money .
Then once the money was in our account she would send a courier to pick up the goods.
My Husband thought it sounded dodgy as buying something you have not even eyeballed is a bit suss.
So I looked up Kapo project and saw it was all a big SCAM |

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.
