scams

Getting a lot of enquires about my adverts and when replying being asked for bank details etc. The latest was offering to write a cheque for £2700 for an item costing £550. I was to pay the cheque in and his agent would then collect the item plus the excess monies, less £50 for removing the advert, £2100. Please be aware this is a scam. The cheque will bounce and you will have lost your item and be out of pocket by £2100!!!

Thanks for the heads up, most things in life are scams, just varying degrees
