Camper advertised on Gum Tree, received a text message asking if item was still for sale. I clicked on to email link & received this response:
Hi,
Thanks for mailing back,I'm ok with the price and the condition,I work
as a Hydrographic Surveyor,I am currently on the sea,we do not have
access to phone at the moment,it's 15days off and 15days on and that's
why I contacted you with internet messaging facility. Please ignore
any other request from other buyers regarding this sale as I am highly
interested.I don't mind adding an extra $500 for a quick sale for you
to be sure I am interested in the immediate purchase.
Regarding the payment,I will be paying you through PayPal,please get
back to me with your paypal details so i can process the payment,you
can alternatively
send your bsb and acct number if you have no PayPal acct.I have also
contacted my courier who will come for pick up and deliver it to my

will like you to re-confirm the price by stating it in your return
e-mail for verification.

Scam EmailMy car was advertised at carsales.com.au and I received a text message from Solomona. I am just wondering how scammers are able to use our telephone system in a way that we cannot reply to their messages. Just like an Optus Message Alert. This must be a big network of hackers and scammers. Please be aware.
