Hello ,
My name is Chloe, and I\'m emailing you about the 2005 Skeeter SX180 I have for sale. The boat is in perfect condition, with no need for any additional repairs. Flawless exterior/interior condition, no scratches and no dents. It has never been in salt water. It has 265 hours and it comes with a clear title with no loans or liens on it. The price was reduced at $ 3,500 as I need to sell the boat before the 31th of May when I will be leaving with my platoon back to Afghanistan, so I don\'t want it getting old in my backyard.
If you have any other questions, or need more info, please feel free to ask.

Thank you,
Chloe


I sent a second email asking where the boat was to look at. While waiting for a reply I searched other websites to see more pictures of similar boats. Then I found an auction that ended with the same exact picture. That\'s when I realized it was a 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.
