Re: Beware of Internet Scammers

Oh i think they're so funny when i was looking for flats i had all kinds of offeres free broadband free bills and sky tv!!! i just role with it and take the mic big time

There is this guy who actually sets out to set these people up and make them look like idiots!! I've seen him go as far as making them get tattoos on thier faces to show they really want something, ect there were pictures and everything!

Thanks for the advice, i just cant believe there are still people falling for it!

Re: Beware of Internet Scammers

Gumtree!!! Oh gumtree!!!

I got scammed very hard, and learnt the very hard way. I was buying for my mum as for many years she has wanted a pug or chi!

Well all we got was massive phone bill, Loss of alot of cash, and alot of heart break..........! I have now spent over 5 months trying to inform many people of the scamming thats going on with gumtree, and had loads of good replies!

Just please be aware...........................!mad:

Re: Beware of Internet Scammers

Scammer alert - benson.clark40@yahoo.com


"I have a client in Europe who we make out the payment to you on my behalf...

He will make out a Banker's Draft Check in a Europe Bank and send to you. The amount on the Banker's Draft Check will be £1,900 ,that will cover the shipping and you will deduct your money which is £800 Therefore, when you receive the Banker's Draft Check you will take it to your bank and cash it, you will deduct your money and assist me in sending the balance of the money to my Shipping company that will pick-up and ship it to me."

As if!

Re: Beware of Internet Scammers

My hubby was nearly caurght out when he replyed to an add for a Labrador. It was supposed to be free to good home. So he emailed back and forth about it and even spoke on the phone. They started asking questions that was nothing to do with the dog or where the dog was going. They eventually asked hubby to deposit £300 into thier paypal and this is where hubby ended the emails etc.
