I was selling a car on gumtree. He texts to ask if I could contact him by email because he had just had an operation on his throat due to cancer. Said he wanted the car and would send an agent to collect and pay via pay pal. I wasn't born yesterday matey!!

This scammer text me stating I was entitled to 706AUD from MyGov. I did not open the text. I deleted it. Thank you.

has website link for mygov/ato scam. says i have a refund of ~$700 and another link for a schedule

Scam Caller was pretending to be from the Visa MasterCard department. Definitely a scam

Caller: Hi. Mark is interested in the Stereosonic 11-101 (very rare). listed for sale on Gumtree. Kindly reply directly on email only with full asking price on mthmps @ outlook.com Gumtree Admin

Hello,
Thanks for the response! The price is a good buy for me... please remove the advert and consider it sold as i am paying your full asking price, Sadly i will not be able to come personally to view or collect it due to house bound went through throat cancer surgery and couldn't talk more but will be ok soon but i have an agent that would help me to pick it up at your preferred location after you have received your money and i'll pay you via PayPal and pick up will start after you have cash your money ..if that is ok with you.
Where is the pick up location so that i can inform the agent about it now and send me your registered paypal email and name,so i can make arrangement for payment. I can also transfer from my paypal to your bank account. Kindly get back to me with your BSB number Account number and Account name .
Regards
Mark
