  Information
Name:
Jim Burke
Email Address:
burkejim82@gmail.com
Was contacted my mobile text asking me to email him more details to burkejim82@gmail.com. Was interested in sale, sent paypal invoice in which he requested me to change the paypal invoice to a \'Western Union\' account and that he would reemburse me for delivery (which he needed me to cover). My partner realised this didn\'t sound right in which case I emailed him telling him it was pick up only and that he needs to organise the pick up himself. After which he cancelled the transaction.

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.
