Classified Ads Scam
Gumtree |  +1 I advertised "caravan for sale" Lisa Said she would buy me caravan that I had advertised on Gumtree and so after a few emails Lisa asked to pay via Paypal so I sent her an invoice. She then said that she needed my email address that is linked to my paypal account so as to link it to my account. I contacted Paypal and they looked up the invoice sad that her email address was not linked to any Paypal account and advised me that she was a scammer and seller beware. Told her and she hasnt contacted me again. |

I advertised our motorhome on gumtree and a couple of hours later she sent a text message same as to others then asked me to e mail her as she was working in the mines couldn't take phone calls. E mailed saying needed me to pay $2500 for pick up of vehicle and she would add it to the money going into my account. Wording was suspicious so googled her and found out she has tried it on many people.
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.
