Classified Ads Scam
Gumtree |  +1 Selling on gumtree Replied to ad on Gumtree. Said he would pay extra $100 if I would remove ad. Work commitments would not permit him to contact any way bar email and that he could pay by pay pal or to give him bank details. He could arrange freight from Vic to N.T. I have 2 other emails from other people sounding exactly the same with the same wording. All are going to freight to N.T from Vic. Don,t think so. justinjonh212@gmail.com & shanehickey1989@outlook are the other two. |

Thanks for getting back to me as regards my inquiry about the listed item is for sale. I would have loved to call you directly but due to the nature of my work we do not have access to phone at the moment,which is why I contacted you with internet messaging facility. i will like to know if you are the direct seller and if you are the first owner.
I will be very grateful if u can give me a first priority and take the ad down. i will add a fee of $100 for taking the ad down.please, get back to me with more pic and the last price offer..I am already in talks with freighters that will handle the pickup and delivery .I will really appreciate if u can email more info
Due to the nature of my work i am a very busy man working all day,i don't have access to my bank account online as am not with my credit card details here but i have my ANZ bank account link up with my PayPal account so I will be paying you through PayPal to your nominated bank account or better still is if u have a PayPal account ,please get back to me with ur BSB and account details or PayPal account so i can proceed with the payment and contact the courier agent who will come to pick it up and deliver it in NT

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.
Consider switching off your AdBlocker (if you use one) or contributing directly by one of the links below. Thank you for reading!
