i put an ad on gumtree to sell a motorbike and was contacted by Ramond. He wanted to purchase the bike and pay for it through PayPal. I thought this would be safe and was going to send him a payment request until my wife googled his name and there he was.
Follow Ups/Extra Information. Most recent is listed first.
We posted an ad on Gumtree. Received a text from Ramond showing interest in the boat. He asked us to reply to his email address. We did so and I also tried to text him to say we had sent the email, when the text wouldn't go through I became suspicious and googled the email address, BINGO. What a sad life Ramond has!

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.
