Gumtree,
Why don't you do anything about the sheer amount of scammers that advertise on your site selling everything they can think of. You surely have a responsibility by moderating the content and should do something about the soooo obvious ads.
You are leaving people open to abuse by allowing these sorts of ads. You need to do something about it by banning people that consistently post these ads and you do have the technology to do it even if they dont use their real email address, etc. |

id have to agree, some sort of ip banning could be used to control spammers and scammers.
I know you guys provide a free service but something to protect the people a little better wouldnt hurt too much would it? |

| i think it might be the master plan of ebay,after all you got to ask yourself why ebay has gumtree ,could it be that maybe after so many bad experiences on gumtree ,that they are trying to get more paying customers for ebay....sure its free but have you ever sold anything at all using gumtree,simple trade or 247ads.com |
