This guy will text you or email you saying he\'s on an oil rig in NZ and can\'t call but wants to buy your car for a holiday. Then he\'ll agree on a price and then he\'ll tell you he wired an excess amount to your Paypal account to cover transport of the car to where he needs it to be but then he\'ll tell you that Paypal is holding the total amount until you wire the transport fee via Western Union to:

Shelley Finney,
73 Holloway Road,
Highbury & Islington,
PO31 7DA,
United Kingdom.

I\'m been on Paypal/eBay for over a decade and he had me sold up until the last email I must admit as we have a lot of fly in/fly out workers loaded with cash in QLD.

Associated email accounts were also:
p.macleon111@gmail.com
Transfer_verificationdesk01@accountant.com
Follow Ups/Extra Information. Most recent is listed first.
Also, he initially contacted us by text message from +17864402613

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.
