Listed a car for sale on gumtree, scammer wanted to purchase vehicle without asking any questions or wanting to inspect. Contacted me via text and asked me not to call or text back but rather to email. I immediately became suspicious. After emailing, the scammer instructed me to remove my ad listing and he would transfer the funds via pay pal. This heightened my concerns and I googled his email address, which has previously been listed on scam sights

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.
