Generic/Unspecified Scam
|  +2 wanting counselling for daughter coming from another country I thought the email seemed suspicious. Starting out as Jacob Faith and ending up as Larry Faith, pointing out to the reader that London is the Capital of the UK and the poor grammar and spelling suggested this was a scam. I dialed the telephone number. A male with a thick accent answered. He was certainly not interested in clarifying anything and he was very insistent that I just send him an email with rates for service. He then seemed to pretend that he couldn't hear me, calling out Hello, Hello! I terminated the call.
I checked online for a scam and found your site with a near replica of the email I received.
The scammer accessed me through my Yellow pages email link.
Thank you for your service. I hope that this helps someone to just press the junk button without fussing.

Man claiming to be an investor in London and who was from Spain wanting my services for his wife and wanting to know my service fee so it could be arranged prior to her coming to my town. All information they used could be found on my website. When I queried where she would be staying they just listed the town and state. Very poor English and grammar which rung alarm bells for me and also could see another email listed besides mine. Definitely a scammer as I found this site investigating. Do not respond!

Came as an email from man seeking counselling for his daughter who suffers from depression wanting to know our rates. Said he lives in UK and is originally from Belgum and is a foreign investor. I did NOT respond to the email. Definately a scam.

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.
