Number is used as part of a Gumtree scam

Money collected but goods not delivered

Caller: James Byron Skinner - Scam artist on Gumtree

Do NOT transfer this guy money.

I got done by transferring $1000 for a coffee machine.

I will be reporting him to the police. If SAPOL cannot help, I will be lodging paperwork in the Magistrates Court

Hi mate, I transferred this guy $450 for an iPad. Can we work together to find him out and get money back?
My email is 551.william @ gmail.com. Send me a mail if you have also been scammed by this guy! We can work together!

Caller: Did not call, but SMS from James Skinner. Never answered when trying to ring.

Money collected and iPad not delivered - expensive mistake buying private from someone not local. Lodge a police report and give them all the details including bank account, number, name. His account is with Bankwest, so lodge a fraud report with them as well.

Caller: Gumtree scam - James Skinner

This guy sold me an iPad on Gumtree and never delivered. Even went to the complexity of sending me a tracking number which was bogus. Now his mobile is blocked.
Make sure you lodge a police report with the fraud squad.
Unfortunately other people wont check this forum and will be duped.

Scam artist from Gumtree,
Always selling coffe machines/expensive items.
Once the money is delivered, the item doesn't get posted and then he deletes his account and disables your number so that you cannot call him.

Do not buy from him
