just posted an ad on gumtree as I was looking for an xbox 360. I know get calls to my landline with spamming messages but I tracked it down to a guy named Ben, his number is 07523287590. Please someone in know, could you spam him back.
I almost got scammed! I kept on asking them questions coz my gut said this buyer sounds dodgy, after about 6 emails. I receive another email from another 'buyer' and the message is identical! lol...
yes thankyou for warning people, but vish why would i report a ads and scams in your stay safe section if the scammers are loading the fake web pages constantly and continuously, surely thats your job to remove these listings and keep us safe as they are so very common, or pay someone to do it as you can afford to advertise on uk tv telling us how good gumtree is.
i asked for help and got nowhere, I am still getting bullshit emails from a prick in Nigeria, Its getting ridiculous. check out my Gumtree fraud video....
gumtree is a joke!! If they really cared about scams put a link warning people on every ad!! They wont do this because they think it makes their already tarnished site look bad. I have news for you scam-tree is a laughing joke no one trusts the site management t are incompetent!
@gumtree4x4 Totally correct, The site is designed with the best intentions of Thieves and Scam merchants at heart. Buyer beware when you venture onto the Gumtree site. its a pisspoor website
Why not make Gumtree sellers Buyers and sellers register?Why not make them use a 3rd party transaction agent like paypal too transfer money?This will stop the scammers and thieves who use Gumtree as a Fencing outlet.Gumtree will never get the confidence of users like ebay has until it becomes regulated.its currently a thieves paradise.I would never buy anything using the site! I recommend anyone using this site to be very careful, if it all goes wrong, Gumtree won't help you,your on your own!!!!
