Scumbags allready circling


Hi all,

Listed out camper for sale for the very first time, to see if the long weekend would help would bee buyers get out and about.

I have no idea how these barstead's work / or know my Email address.

We received a Spam mail saying:...................... Inquirey sale of your camper ID No.............

The only information goes through the caravan / camping web site. to get phone contact ONLY. With no mention of our Email address what so ever, and they have to make first contact through the web site.

We did not open the Spam either, just deleted it. low life's

Hey jim & Laqmbie

You are a bit tough Jim confuse

Maybe it is some poor bugga out on a oil rig in Bass Strait and can't get on shore to check it out mate disbelief cry furious biggrin

A camper would be very handy on a oil rig I reckon.

I seem to remember a story about a month back that a " rig worker " sob story ploy. on Email  nonononono would send money.

This is part of  our retirement and into our new van for my Lambie plan.smilesmilesmile

Will meet up one day soon over lunch, and continue this sarga. You may run, but you can't hide. I will use GOOGLE EARTH  or Email or some tect GPS way. De world is getting smaller you know.(May bring a whole lot of other GN with us, if their zimmer 's can keep up) By the time Lambie has finished in your ear, you'll need a hearing aid or to.biggrinbiggrinbiggrinbiggrinbiggrin

Must be something in the air - this morning I advertised a porta cot on Gumtree for $20 and just got an email about if it was still available - replied ring and I'll give address. The email actually comes via Gumtree and the enquirer does not see your email address.

Good Luck.

 Need to correct you. No oil rig in Bass Straight. There're all in some fancy name off NZ shore. disbelief

I opened a new gmail email address for our local Mens Shed and within 24 hours I had spam trying to sell services to our Mens Shed. It has me baffled how they knew it was a Mens Shed email address as I hadn't used it to communicate with anyone at that time. The email address name does not refer to a Mens shed as it would be impossible to link it to such.

The email address is only put in our local news sheet which comes out once a month. I get a lot of spam using my name to my main email address. They seem to harvest the names and email addresses easy.

I have already spoken to my friend the Mayor and the red carpet will be out for sure on your arrival Jim. Then I will hide behind a big rock until you have left biggrin

 

Now, to get back on topic, scams are a daily occurrence these days and we all must keep our eyes and ears in good nick not  to let them fool us. Seems a lot of these scammers work on oil rigs.
