Fake Paypal Money Transfer 
 Scammer
  Information
Name:
\"Declan Brouder\"
Email Address:
brouder.declan@yahoo.com
Responded to my advert on Gumtree aboutselling my gold diamond ring. Offered to pay full price straight away. After a day or 2 speaking to him he agreed he was definately interested and wanted to go ahead with the payment and would transfer the money into my paypal. That afternoon i recieved a \"fake\" paypal email saying he had transfered the funds but i would not see or receive them until he had recieved the ring... to a nigerian address. This raised an alarm. I typed his email address into google and hundreds of posts came up about him being a scammer. Almost all of the emails people had copied and posted were word for word exactly the same as what he had been sending me. Neeless to say he wasblocked from contacting me ever again.

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.
