Gumtree |  +1 Lift and massage king single bed I have posted a larger item for sale on Gumtree. Within an hour of posting it, I had 2 hits wanting to buy the item for the specified price. This is the message I received from both parties----
Thanks a lot for the email. I am away at sea at the moment,i work with New Zealand Oil and Gas (NZOG) and we are presently offshore in New Zealand Taranaki Basin on kapo project. We do not have access to phone at the moment,its 5days off and 25days on,which is why I contacted you with internet messaging facility. Where is it located at the moment?
I am buying it for my holiday and i want it delivered before my arrival.I won't be able to come for the inspection due to the nature of my work and i would have called but our calling is restricted.Regarding the payment,pls get back to me with your final asking price and your paypal details so i can process the payment,you can alternatively send your bsb and acct number if you have no paypal acct.I have also contacted my courier who will come for pick up after the whole fund has been cleared into your acct.
Await your reply
I have not been scammed, thanks to a quick eye and mind. Thank-you. |

An email response to a craigslist ad I posted to sell a large item. It seemed suspicious and this site confirmed it. The email I received was pretty much word for word what others have posted.
Scam EmailHi.Thank you for getting back to me , can you assure me that is in good state and that i will not be disappointed with it.I'm ready to pay your asking price and to be honest, i wanted to buy this for my Dad, but the issue is I'm a marine biologist and i do have a contract to go for which starts tomorrow and am leaving any moment from now.The contract is strictly no call due to the lack of reception on the sea area. But I'm able to access email anytime as we will make use of laptop so my only quickest payment option is PayPal as i can send money via PayPal anytime.since I'm requesting this transaction to be done via PayPal, i will be responsible for all the paypal fee/charges on this transaction and if you don't have an account with paypal,its pretty easy, safe and secured to open one. Just log on to www.paypal.com and I hope we can make the purchase as fast as possible?I have a mover that will come for it once payment clears and i will like to see more pics i look forward to hear back from you soon.
