“Facebook Marketplace Scam: A Scam to Watch out For (1st Hand Experience)” was the name of a post I did on May 13, and I think it’s worth highlighting for three reasons:
- I think you might find it educational and could potentially share it with people you know.
- A representative from the company that supposedly runs Facebook Marketplace has now left a comment providing instructions on what to do to help catch the scammer.
- [Learning opportunity] If the company that runs Facebook Marketplace used a listening service, something as simple as Google Alerts, they would have seen this post a long time ago.
Do take a moment and read the previous post about this scam; I think you’ll enjoy reading my exchange with the scammer (also take note of the comments).
