Trying to sell a car on gumtree, unknown individual emails me wanting to buy the car, is currently working in new zealand, claims to have no mobile phone signal. Wants to pay via paypal to my paypal or bank account. Explain I am reluctant to give out banking details, he/they then demand paypal details without giving over any personal information as requested. Do a google search on his email address and end up on this website. CAVEAT VENDOR, seller beware!

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.
