Scam EmailThey generalized the information from my \"wanted\" ad, and had generic pictures that could be anywhere. and pictures of the inside that can be found if you search for images.
it began with a confirmation to my wanted ad and to contact them for more information.. so when i did that then they were free to use the email address and come up with this... However the problem that most alerted me was the phone number when he said he lived now in michigan... I lived there and i know there is no 202 exchange for michigan it is in fact from Washington DC.. i never called the number nor will i, this is definately a scam
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.
