My husband was contacted by Simon but was using \"lisapatrick90@gmail.com\" email address. I was skeptical from the beginning so did a little googling and found that this is a common occurrence and he/she has used a few different email addresses in their scams. Thankfully we didn\'t send them any of our information!!!


Thanks for mailing back,am ok with the price and the condition,i work with New Zealand Oil and Gas (NZOG) and we are presently offshore in New Zealand Taranaki Basin on kupe project.We do not have access to phone at the moments 15days off and 15days on and that\'s why I contacted you with internet messaging facility.Regarding the payment,i will be paying you through PayPal,please get back to me with your paypal details so i can process the payment,you can alternatively send your bsb and acct number if you have no PayPal acct.I have also contacted my courier who will come for pick up and deliver it to my place in Darwin after the whole fund has been cleared into your acct.

Await your reply.
Follow Ups/Extra Information. Most recent is listed first.
These people contacted me also with the same message, for some reason I thought it was also fishy when they wanted to pay me straight away if I provided my Paypal or bank details. I will be calling them regularly for the next few days every half an hour 24hrs a 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.
