Posting this so community can be aware I posted an item on gumtree UK received message from Rosalina Hi can you please reply to my dad because he is after this purchase and ready for payment, kindly contact him here [removed] and inform him with any extra information unfortunately he is unable to contact on gumtree due to some problems. Got email from them when I replied I appreciate your response because I'm ready to buy, sorry i won't be around for inspection because i work full time. I am satisfied with the information provided but if there are specific details you need to add please don't hesitate to do so for a clean sale. A courier/pick up agent will come over at your address for the collection after money has been paid to your account, So they will be available for all necessities needed for the collection which you have nothing to worry about. Sorry I am not available for voice calls due to my hearing disability so I don’t use phone that’s why I am on email all the time and also the reason you got the message from my kid on Gumtree. Note: This transaction will be done through PayPal because I am unable to bring cash to your location, kindly get back to me with the following details: PayPal email address and the name of the PayPal account holder for fast payment now so we can proceed from there on the collection .. I will be expecting your response ASAP They asked for my address, I've not heard back just yet On googling this is a common gumtree fraud likely paypal scam and putting this out for community to be aware. I will ignore any future potential spoofing emails and not ship item, have paid for identity and credit check protection in case identity fraud (later lower risk)
