This guy texted me stating he was very interested in my Toy Hauler, made me a good offer and wanted to discuss further via email. Someone else tried to scam me via the same way thru my ad on EBay so I recognized the signs immediately. His cell is from NY. How pathetic people have to resort to such games. I see that I\'m not the first he has tried to scam!
Follow Ups/Extra Information. Most recent is listed first.
This is a VoIP number belonging to Bandwidth.com and most likely resold to a wholesaler who gives these lines away and charges a small callerID fee. You can report scam attempts from this number to:
http://bandwidth.com/resources/legal/policy_violations.html
It's quick and simple and if enough reports are recieved, they will shut down this line.

Scam Email

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.
