Hi guys,
Thank you for posting on here about this and confirming my suspicions when I received communication from yet another scammer in reply to my kijiji ad. I was contacted via text and asked to email my final price to "Debbie Roxanna", which I did. To that she replied

"Hi,
Thanks for your fast reply, I'm interested in it,how i wish to come and view it in person but am out of town, I am an underwater photographer (shooting for Discovery) and was sponsored by another dry suit company in states, So i won't be able to come and do things personally,I have gone through the AD and am satisfied with the condition and the price ,i will arrange for a shipping courier company that will come and pick it up at your door step or anywhere you prefer as soon as you received payment, I usually pay with cash but due to my current position,i will be paying you through PayPal which is fast, safe and reliable method of payment and . I'll add the 3.9% PayPal surcharge to the firm price. kindly send me your PayPal payment invoice or create an account at http://www.paypal.com if you don't already have one and set it up within 5mins, Please Get back to me with the details below :

The phone number was 1-224-276-7803 and email address [email protected]. I will now research and see what I can do to report the email address and phone number.

Welcome to Scamwarners,

Please do not report the email address. If you do your warning to others will become useless.

The scammer will take 5 minutes out of his life and create a new free email address. We will find the scammer only again when a potential victim or even worse a victim reports it to an Anti-Scam site.

Same with the phone number do not report it.

(224) 276-7803
2242767803 is a VoIP number with an area code in IL

Please contacta moferatorstor if you have a question or information about this post.



Please do not tell the scammer he is posted here.


Please remember the fallen. https://www.odmp.org/
