On Friday night, Emily put her CBR 125 up for sale on Gumtree. 00:39 Saturday morning we had a text asking for the final price and to email them only. A few fishy messages later, we decided something wasn't right. I did a Google search for the email and name we had, and turned up a load of other Gumtree users who had fallen victim to them before. After reporting them to Action Fraud and Gumtree, we cut off communication with them and narrowly avoided falling victim as well. For those of you who sell/buy online look out for staciegooding23@gmail.com/07624803049 and longsam1133@gmail.com/texts from 'Sam'. We had the same messages from both of those contacts! The reports have been forwarded to the police as well.
Not such an exciting update right now, but felt the need to warn those of you who might be at risk of a scam! We will be back soon with more updates :)
Cheers everyone!
