Luda Dawood claimed to be on an Oil rig off the coast of NZ, interested in buying our advertised car sight unseen for $13,000. Wanted to use paypal, but I insisted on a bank transfer. After giving bank account details, the 'buyer' said that had trouble with the UK courier who was to transport it to Darwin from Tasmania. She wanted to transfer an additional $1000 to my account and asked me to transfer $950 via Western Union to
Name: Leo Johnson
Address:66 mitchell avenue,gravesend kent DA11 8AX

While waiting for the funds to arrive, I googled this person, and this led me to this and many similar sites. Glad I sent nothing until I recieved something. I am guessing I will be waiting a while for the transfer...

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.
