I received a "WEB SMS" apparently "via gumtree" saying they were interested in an item of furniture and I should email them. I did. They replied explaining they worked offshore as a marine engineer and wouldn't be able to view or collect the item but if I gave them my paypal or bank details they'd transfer the money and have a shipper collect the item once the funds had cleared. I would have given them my details if the email address hadn't come up on Scamdex when I googled it! So, thank you!!

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.
