 |
|
Hi to all on gumtree ...i have just registered to post this as I feel that others should be aware of this...probably wont make a difference?
Id like to inform all that the post re Sunday 16th July Kittens For Sales(EVERYWHERE) on the glasgow gumtree & other boards I feel is a scam.
I have emailed the person that placed this ad & received an email reply staing that it is from 'BUEA MOLYKO IN THE SOUTH WAST PROVINCE OF CAMEROON' There has been ads on other sites re CAMEROON for animals & birds willing to ship out but must be paid first, if money is sent the poster disappears?
Unfortunately there has been a couple of people on other sites that fell for this scam & lost money. Some ads Iv noticed stating places in the UK are based in Cameroon.
I have emailed support @gumtree.com twice & had no reply & tried to post this on the pet section twice but has not been put on ...yet the ad is allowed to remain? |
