OFFERED TO BUY VEHICLE I HAD ON AUTOTRADER AND ASKED TO HANDLE MONEY THRU PAYPAL, THEN THEY SENT A FAKE EMAIL CONFIRMATION OF PAYMENT, AS IF IT WERE COMING FROM PAYPAL, ADVISING ME OF A PAYMENT RECEIVED. UPON FURTHER CHECKING, PAYPAL VERIFIED THAT IT WAS FAKE AND THAT NO MONIES HAD BEEN RECEIVED INTO MY PAYPAL ACCOUNT. I THEN GOOGLED THE PHONE NUMBER AND THE SCREEN EXPLODED WITH ALL KINDS OF INFO ON THIS PHONE NUMBER AND NAME. GLAD I NEVER SENT THE CAR.
Follow Ups/Extra Information. Most recent is listed first.
POSTED A VEHICLE FOR SALE ON AUTO TRADER. RECEIVED TWO TEXTS FROM TWO DIFFERENT NUMBERS FROM ANNETTE GINA. THE PERSON REQUESTED I EMAIL THEM. THIS RAISED MY SUSPICION SO I GOOGLED THE NAME AND FOUND THE POSTINGS ON THIS WEB SITE. THE TWO PHONE NUMBERS USED WERE 864-939-8026 AND 864-938-7630. DO NOT COMMUNICATE IN ANY WAY WITH THIS PERSON!

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.
