I placed an wanted ad. for a UK registered car recently…Got somebody offering me a 30K car for 10K… They sent photos of somebody 4x4 which looked great. Mails have been going back and forth for a few days now.
They wanted 35% deposit by Western Union and the balance when they deliver the car:D
The ip address is in the States…I “sent” the money yesterday . Sadly when he went to collect the money, I had sent the wrong MTCN so he went home empty handed. I sent him another and there seems to be a problem with that number too:) Just about to send him another number so he can go try to pick up his loot.
I wonder how many trips I can get him to do before he realises what’s going on? :w00t:
Brilliant! You should take a look at this site if you havent seen it before, loads of people leading on the scammers and wasting there time. Theres a really funny video of 2 scammers doing the Monty Python dead parrot scene on there somewhere
He has just come back from his third attempt and asking me to send a copy of the WU paperwork. I’ve just scanned on old receipt from a payment I made ages ago. So blurred no details can be read but clearly a WU form… Hoping this will keep him going for a bit:)
These are the details given by the scammer.They said it would take 8 days to deliver but i said that was too long for me…so they said 4…they really are very helpful. Do any of you guys know this address?
Anyway,still keeping them busy:)
would like to inform you that it would be transported by cargo and i would like to let you know that i found out you would be able to get it in the next 4 days.Also i would like to let you know you wuld need to send me the full details i requested for so i could get the paper work done and also i would like you to have the payment details

Test Question: what are you buying?
Test Question Anwser: Car
You would need to send me the number given to you at the bank.I hope to read from you tomorrow.Please send me your telephone number .
NB I would advise you to collect your money from Western Union and you need to know that I will not be sending the car due to cost of shipping. Sorry for any trouble I may have caused you…
I came across this site when I was scammed by Rendee Crystal for £300 the guys still trying to contact me. Got his mobile even photos of him on a motorbike (if it is him). Anyway I’m going to do just what you did and run his arse ragged back and forth to western union.
yeh like when your selling a car on ebay for £1000 and you get an offer of £2000
Or the email from the girl who’s father was a king that has been killed and she needs someone to cash her inheritance, so you just have to send her, bank details address etc etc!!! :hehe:
Wow, I thought it was just me that has this hobby…I had no idea there were so many like minded people. I also do it with Indian call centres…especially in winter when I’m house bound and bored. I normally keep them going for ages pretending it’s a bad line or I mispronounce my name or call myself Peter Foul (say it quickly you’ll get the idea).
I think we should have a regular competition with a prize.
