Had an ad on Gumtree, she replied via WhatsApp, she said she has organised with Auspost to send a courier to pickup just to send through card details to pay for it. The auspost site looked legit, had the Auspost logo with the lock, also the secure form etc

Thanks to all previous victims' contribution. I got the exactly same information from her ( I think maybe it's him or them.) I think they are dangerous because their communications are very polite, like a well educated person, they act as trustworthy. - AnonymousJune 22, 2022OtherAustralia

Gumtree scammer. Attempted to con me by asking me to enter my card details to receive payment via a non-existant 'door to door' AusPost courier service:
"I want to buy, please tell me if it would be convenient for you if I arranged for door-to-door delivery via AusPost? 🥰
It's very simple, I pay via AusPost, then you confirm the order, receive payment, the courier contacts you tomorrow.😊
This is a great service, I'm sure you will use it in the future!)
Best regards Brenda"
