Gumtree UKASH scammer - Victoria Packer - [email protected]
This scammer is advertising items for sale on Gumtree (and probably other classified sites as well).
In the example I was given she advised that she would deliver the item purchased, but then recontacted the would be victim to advise that she couldn't make it, but would send it by ParcelForce Worldwide cash on delivery.
'Parcel Force Worldwide' (fake) then contact the victim and advise that they should buy a UKASH voucher and send them a scan of the voucher - enabling them to steal the money.

Please do not tell scammers that they are listed here - it will take them seconds to change their fake details and their new details will not be listed for any future victims to find.
