Selling son\'s car; placed ad in Carsguide. Guy texted and asked me to send info to email address. Said he was on West Squarius Submersible and wants for son in NT (Charles Darwin Uni). I gave brief history of work on car and general area we bought it from. He said would send courier for car once payment went through and he was happy to do via Paypal. All seemed legit but for some reason felt uneasy so checked out a few things and found this site. So glad I did!!! Just hope car does not \'disappear\' one day!

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.
