Gumtree |  +4 Lisa riediger wanting $950 to be transfered to western union before 'she' would buy our car for her 'son' Lisa claims she wants to buy your car for her \'son\' she told us that she had put $5000 into our account and then said we wouldn\'t be able to access the money until we had paid out of our own pockets $950 to western union for the pick up of the car to some Chinese idiot in china. Obviously we didn\'t pay this but it seems that these horrible Chinese people are trying to scam lots of people when it comes to buying cars. Please spreading word about these Chinese criminals, we don\'t want anyone else caught out by these monkeys. |

Placed an add for a small skid steer loader on Gumtree for $20 000. Got an SMS requesting I send details to the email address. When I did, I received this immediate response (i.e. less than a minute; probably automatic)
"Thank you for the mail,i am okay with the condition Likewise your asking price is quite reasonable and affordable considering others I've seen lately, I'll have it for the listed price,please kindly send me your BANK details or pay pal payment email and name to set up purchase,as i don't have access to my bank account online as am not with my credit card details here on our mine site but i have my ANZ bank account linked up with my PayPal account so I will be paying you through PayPal to your nominated bank account
i will arrange for pick up and delivery by my freight agent after the cleared payment to your account.
Many Thanks"
I smelled a rat because of the response time , plus people don't often spend $20k on vehicles sight unseen. Coming here I've found out the rest of what they were up to .... Thanks guys.

Contacted me by text message to my mobile to contact her through her email address rather than her phone. I called the number and phone turned off or not in mobile service area.
She was interested in how much I would drop the price and to email her back ASAP. After also ringing the number no service. I knew it was weird. I googled her name as well and found this.

Lisa contacted me via email claiming to be interested in purchasing my bull bar off Gum Tree which was for sale for $950.00.
She claimed to have deposited the funds to my account straight away and also added in an extra $1000.00 for freight. The email requested that I pay for the freight out of my own funds and then her money would be credited to my account. Luckily I knew this wasn't right and I decided to google her, what do you know? People have reported her for the some things.
Be careful!!
