Requested that I email him best final price and photographs re: a car advert on Gumtree. The text looked authentic, but it was the fact that he asked for final price without looking at the car that alerted me. I now check all text requests regarding car adverts whether they look dodgy or not. Glad I did, because this guy has shown up here before!

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.
