Scammer: pretends to show interest in an advert and tries to get you to contact them via a Gmail account.

The message sender pretends to be Website Admin but when I contacted the website host they confirmed this is false.

Do not engage with the scammers they will probably ask for your Paypal account and hack you.

So I used the scammer's email address to sign them up for a vast number of religious based email subscriptions, lottery/prize draws and political newsletters etc.

They should be receiving about 60,000 emails a day now. At best it will clog their email inbox so it will make it difficult for them to scam others with that email address.
