I was selling a wedding dress on gumtree. The buyer (aka Annie Snells annelllson118@gmail.com) was hounding me for bank details and wanted me to pay for courier through Western Union BEFORE funds would be cleared and released to me for the dress. I work in IT so they picked the wrong person to scam.

I receieved a ficticious email from PayPal from accountant.com advising the steps to follow.
PAYPAL DO NOT EMAIL YOU - everything is kept on your account online.
The hyperlinks back to PayPal were broken links.
The PayPal logo was wrong.
The transcation ID number was different to that on PayPal

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.
