Beware Email Scam From Paper Ad

Happywanderer · The Master

That sure is a scam, so obvious. Then when her agent picks up the merchandise Mrs Cory arranges for her money to refunded back from paypal, thats if she paid it across in the first place.
Well spotted.

Yep they just don't give up do they.........errrr........when you get your 2 Million you could buy my caravan, LOL, but I won't hang by my fingernails waiting biggrin

I had contacted hotmail from this persons first contact as they were using a hotmail address and they were dumped, and I also reported it to Scamnet, but they targetted me again using another email address (the emails from Quokka are automated);

Hi You dont think I will get any? That makes me cry.. I have ordered a new all bells and whistles caravan and a 450 F,a to tow the sucker with. Will need a 450 as the van is a double decker and has 8 wheels, a bath and swimming pool. Four bed rooms and sun room at the back.. You think I should cancel? Or should I sell to one of the *%#$@ that sent the email!!!
Now that could work ,send me a $100 to open a bank acc. so you can send me the 2million..
BIG SMILE...Thinking how my new van will look going down the road, Bob n Bev

Just this week I've had 3 junk snail mails advising me I've won $10,000. All I have to do is send $39.95 for "administration costs" and they'll send the cheque.
They all came from a return address, Sydney, but the return envelopes were all to the same address. Just coincidental that they arrived on the same day.
So, I sent the paperwork back, with no money and a note reminding them "no purchase is necessary with this transaction", and return the envelopes with no postage stamps.
$30,000 would be a good top up for my diesel fund, but I won't hold my breath.
