It has been brought to my attention that someone tried to scam a potential buyer of a second hand trampoline. Thus if you are buying or selling items you should be on your guard. There have been people in the past who want people to sell their boat to them in return for a bankers draught with a promise that someone will appear to collect the boat, this is a scam too. Report from Keith Bartlett: Someone ( calling himself Robin) contacted him and offered him a tramp for £100. He sounded as if he was a genuine seller and Phil made an internet transfer for £100, but got nothing back. He reported it to the police- see details below, who are in the process of charging this guy... Robin. |
