Received the following text from 0434 118 846: Hello I’m interested in your FURNITURE write me back on my email bridgeth0147 @ gmail.com Cheers (responding to a Gumtree ad) This is a typical scam message, poor grammar and not even being specific about the item being sold. Do not respond to them and delete their message - AnonymousJanuary 14, 2022UnknownAustralia
Glad I googled the email address. Listed an ad on Gumtree and received a text "Hello is your furniture listed on gumtree still for sale? if yes kindly write me back on my private email for more detail bridgeth0147 @ gmail.com. - CassJune 13, 2021Scam callAustralia

Posted an ad on gumtree, then received this message as a text to my phone number… When my partner goes to gumtree we can’t see my phone number…
Is your Furniture still for sale? what is the price and condition of it,get back to me through my email address (kburgess570 @ gmail.com)
Vague wording regarding the ad and questioning price and condition that are already listed! Why would I respond via email when you’ve just text me? SCAM ALERT! - AnonymousJune 7, 2021SMSAustralia
