SImone Ragni states intention of buying your item - gives good reason why she can not view item or collect her-self. Requests you buy Amazon card to pay courier and uses authentic looking Paypal site to send you messages stating the payment for item and amazon card is pending awaiting verification of card number. There is then problem with payment and you loose the money from the card £225 in my case.
Be very suspicious of buyers who offer to buy expensive items with out seeing goods. Never part with money for courier how ever authentic Paypal site looks!

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.
