Perhaps if people *must* post scam warnings it could be done in one thread?

And don't forget to inform a mod of any suspicious request.

Just got one of these PMs from a scuper wanting to buy a phone from me that i havent even listed for selling and therefore i have not set a price but he is willing to pay it

So unless this member can see into the future and predict that i will be selling my phone in the near future i suppose he just PMed the wrong person

As soon as Western Union is mentioned alarm bells start ringing!!!

People should make sure they post the email address of the scammer in their thread for others to see. That way we can all use the address on other sites or questionnaires and then soon they will get sh*t loads of spam.........

Well, thats just one idea......
