1 |  +1 Craigslist/ PayPal service@paypal.com (auto_shipper@easy.com) texted me telling me they wanted to purchase a china cabinet from me, and asked if they could be billed via PayPal and they gave me the above email address to send the invoice. They sent me a text back saying to check my junk mail for a notice that the money went through, yet nothing appeared in my paypal account. They wanted me to pay $475 for shipping via the bogus junk email. |

Agreed to purchase a hot tub we posted on CL and said they sent us $5285 for cost of hot tub and delivery fees. Sent me a text back saying to check my email for the PayPal email but email said I needed to send $600 via Money Gram before the money would be released to me. No way was I going to send anyone any money until I received the money in my PayPal account. I never received any money in my Pay Pal account. My wife checked Google using the name Jessica Aguliar and this person has tried this scam before. Also, the email said the delivery company was out of Quincy MA. We live no where near Quincy MA so this made no sense either. AVOID this person as they are just trying to scam you.
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.
