( I AM SO GLAD I LOOKED AT THIS SIGHT AS I WAS ABOUT TO GIVE HIM INFO!) I sent him an email now asking for a BANK CHEQUE!)
Follow Ups/Extra Information. Most recent is listed first.
The same thing just happened to me today with the exact wording in the text and then email.
I didn't have my car advertised on Gumtree only in a local paper.

I had listed my car for sale on Gumtree & received an immediate text message to email this guy so I did & this was his phoney reply: I am only interested in a face to face transaction sorry. Good luck with the hunt for a car.

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.
