Unsafe Marketplace
Dear Gumtree. There is ******** on Gumtree replying to your phone/camera add saying they interested but its for their child they will eft the money, and they even send a **** id with a **** proof of payment, and then they send a driver to pick it up but you never get your money. Some change must be done so its safer to sell on there, unfortunately i fell for the **** and I'm sure a lot of other people also did.
