He's removed the email addressJim can you make it clear on here the situation. I think there are some really kind hearted individuals on this forum who may still try to donate even after all that has been said?
Google is a friend here and googling known information such as name and location could adjust one's thinking before thinking about helping this chap outJim can you make it clear on here the situation.

Did not say I was going to send funds. Did you not notice I am from Yorkshire! Just posted the request for bank details for the benefit of others……especially Funsters from Scotland!Fool!
You forgot the "I can only do the transfer after you pay the transfer fee to me" part
I wasn't tempted to help.Google is a friend here and googling known information such as name and location could adjust one's thinking before thinking about helping this chap out
You would need to do it yourself though
Very nice of you to react so quickly to his request. Which one have you bought for him?I’m away climbing in and out of motorhomes at the NEC
didnt think for one iota of a second you would, it was the people you said might be gullible enough to "help" for them to considerI wasn't tempted to help.
I wouldn't call them gullible, I would call them caring and trusting.didnt think for one iota of a second you would, it was the people you said might be gullible enough to "help" for them to consider
Be aware this person joined yesterday, first post a sob story and external email address, if its not a scam or gofundme thing I'll be very suprised
In addition, the email address is noted for previous forum spam elsewhere
You’re so cruel but then again neither was I temptedI wasn't tempted to help.
I wonder what Matthew Clare calls them.I wouldn't call them gullible, I would call them caring and trusting.
You were asking for the donation of a bloody motorhome for god sakeita all well and good jumping on the band wagon trolling someone genuinely in need of help its not like I was asking for anything for free
The trouble with these sort of threads, anyone with an ounce of common sense can see it's some sort of scam, but you can't out and out say so because it might just be the one that isn't, and if you do warn folks there is always going to be someone ready to put you down as being uncareing and making excuses for them which is just what the scammer is hoping for.
You can't win I'm afraid.
Have you got a spare one I like a nice new IH pleaseThanks for all the shout outs about this thread. shame I missed it, I enjoy a giggle. I’m away climbing in and out of motorhomes at the NEC.
Apparently he isn't even a plasterer.I’ll say it…. He needs to get off the sofa and get a job plastering as it’s bloody good money and buy one himself, he’s just a lazy prat that wants it given to him so he can claim benefits while he’s touring around on a lovely jolly at someone else’s expense…
It’s what most all of us on here did to get where we are…
If you google his name/location as suggested above, it may well be his location was more full timing at HM pleasure where he was learning such tricks. If it is the same person, mentioning he was couch surfing probably isn't a good thingIf I had been full-timing for 7 years I'm sure I would have developed a sixth sense about where not to stop. I think most of us who even occasionally stay off-grid are acutely aware of this sort of thing.
he dont need it now, I'm lending him mine, but if you could send me a donation for a new replacement van Id be ever so gratefulI'm willing to give him a chance. How much do you need mate?
