I\'m from Portugal and i have some second hand items announced to sell on a website in Portugal - www.olx.pt. On each advertisement on that website (only on my items of course) i placed my e-mail and my mobile phone for potential buyers be able to contact me.
Someone sent me an sms showing interest on some of my items and asking to contact him(?) by e-mail:- danieljack18@gmail.com

After exchanging some e-mails, he proved to be interested in 9 items and wanted to buy them, offering even more money than I had requested.
FIRST MISTAKE - no one buys more expensive than it\'s requested!

Then he asked for my Paypal account in order to make the payment immediatly, leaving the delivery arrangements for later.
SECOND MISTAKE - no one pays in advance without some kind of insurance!

I decided to track his e-mail IP and got this - 173.194.68.26 - used many times for several type of internet scams.

BE CAREFUL. Don\'t give up your personal information without being sure you\'re dealing with decent people like you. And remember, a good business rarely or never is easy.

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.
