Just had the same scam today. Jennifer wanted to purchase 2 sofas that I had advertised on Gum tree and get them courirered to Scotland. She wanted to buy them for her son. She couldn't view them as was in Scotland and in a wheel chair. Asked for my paypal email which I gave her after having spoken to paypal who advised me not to give out my address until money was in my paypal. She then asked me to set up a yahoo or hotmail email address as a payment reference as it would be quicker than my gmail. Alarms bells started ringing!!! Decided to google the name Jennifer and saw this thread. Thank Goodness!!!!
