I've got a Keith <removed> wanting to buy a suite I have advertised on Gumtree. Definite scam as when I googled his name it brought up countless people he'd tried it on with previously. Says he can't view it as he's an instructor on an oil rig but wants to arrange a courier to pick it up as it's for a family member. Avoid him like the plague!!!
