I posted a flute for sale on Gumtree in Australia. I receive an sms on my mobile phone saying she/he was interested by my ad and that I should contact him/her by email. I did and received the following reply:
\"Thanks for the response,i am very satisfied with your advert,i will like you to get back to me with is present condition and your final price,i will be requesting this transaction should be done via PayPal,so the PayPal charges is on me,kindly send me your PayPal email or send me money request,you can alternatively send me your bank account information if you have no PayPal account,so that i can proceed with the payment asap as am very busy at work and do not have much time around me.Make sure you get back to me asap,so that we can arrange for pick up as i will like the pick up to hold at your residence location,so no shipping.

Looking forward to read from you asap\"

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.
